Think again!

Here is a bit of writing I transcribed from a scrappy piece of paper given to me by Roy Ray.Roy is the Principle of the St.Ives School of painting and is a widely exhibited and respected artist. As a young Man I took along some of my early work to show him whilst on holiday in Cornwall. He gave me this to encourage me, and I have treasured it ever since...basing a lot of what I believe art-wise on.Please take some time to read and then think again!..maybe you really are an Artist!?
