I can 'see' beauty but am unable to recreate it in any medium. I took 4 years of art in high school and got very good grades, but my work really stunk. I think that I was awarded the good grades for my diligence.

sour. . I think you misunderstood. He meant get art ON his back. . as in a tattoo. . Not get back into art.
Not get back into art.
You're right. 
Lack of reading comprehension. 
Good blessed morning fellow ponders 
Sounds like most of you are on the mend, finally.
For my friends still struggling,
All good here. Light snow falling. Temps in the quite tolerable 20's.
What I refer to as the "quiet time" of winter has arrived. The craziness of the holidays behind, the traditionally (for us anyway) wild winter weather time is many weeks in the future. The hunters and noisy snowmobilers have all went back south so I can finally step out my back door and be able to hear myself think again. It's the time for us of hibernation and getting caught up on all those little inside "round to it" projects that take a backseat to all the more important (and far more enjoyable) chores outside. It's also a time of separation and renewal of mind and spirit before the dreaded time of taxes and politics arrives.
Have a beautiful Sunday around the small water all

I have just the opposite problem. I have at least a bit of talent in several areas which for me has not turned out to be a good thing. I'm like a squirrel caught in traffic. I start getting serious in one area and just as I begin to actually develop my skill I see a piece of artwork or pick up a new book and it's "ooooh! I need to do that!" and it's a 90o pivot and off I go. I'm still waiting for me to decide what I want to be when I grow up!

Yes!!! MY THOUGHT EXACTLY!
What I do find that the last year or so I find myself returning to interests that I had laid aside years ago. I always wind up returning to my wood carving over and over but not always in the same form (forced to give up that one for many years because I could not risk getting seriously cut due to health/medications) but I enjoy small carvings (think I need to finally do the creche' Ive always meant to do) and I'm also being drawn back into rug design. One of my favorite antique/thrift shops bought out an entire store closing and wound up with a huge lot of yarns. I think I wound up with just about all of what they had (aka bags) that would work for my projects (I choose not to create things such as sweaters and hats etc. tho I do know how). I've also found myself picking up a lot paste acrylic paints whenever I come across a sale etc. lately with no idea what that's about, yet. Here I go again, "Squirrel"
