everyday matters

The artist Danny Gregory keeps a blog that I check out on a regular basis. He did an entry recently that just might inspire me to pick up my pencil and try drawing again. I really do want to become better at sketching, but I get so frustrated because it does not come natural to me. It is HARD!! Most things creative that I've attempted, I find that I can at least semi-accomplish without embarrassing myself. Two exceptions: drawing and playing guitar. And not that I fall on my face when I attempt these; I have just found that to succeed even in the least at either of these creative endeavors requires regular practice, and somehow I have not yet been disciplined enough to dedicate myself.
