this is my 'other blog' it's supposed to be the darker side, a s the title says, Why am I not an artist?' the depressed side of art, I once heard of someone who had done an MA in art and when the paintings were all hung she was so unhappy with what she'd done she went around and slashed all her work with a knife, I think although that was extreme a lot of art makers would understand, sometimes you feel that art has let you down or you have let art down, or perhaps its all just a waste of time anyway.

Sometimes looking at art that really impresses you makes you think Why can't I paint, why am I such a failure; it's only people whop don't do art who think we are having a lovely time painting and drawing. it must be so relaxing- not always.
