Believe it or not, but my art teacher in school actually failed me because I couldn't learn and I had absolutely no vision for imagination.
Now that's how you motivate your students!!!!

In 33 years of teaching art, when someone said "I can't draw" I always countered with ." No. you just don't know how to draw". Now grant you, some were very slow learners but everyone in their own way has some visual talent. The trick is trying to find out what it is. Once you learn how to look it is amazing how you then can look into your own imagination images and then do something with them. We all see things differently. It's a life long learning process
