Degas once said that "painting is easy when you don't know how, and very difficult when you do."
Very few individuals master any medium in a period of only a few hours. Kudos to those who do!
I will give Vincent that he qualified his statement. But, I think the old boy was talking out of his hat that day.
Great Degas quote, Lisa.
