Composition

I believe it was Oscar Wilde that said, and I do not quote, that an artist, in order to be an artist, does not perceive things as they really are. How true this is.

I do not consider myself an artist yet. I need to create something so great, it must be influential. But, I do have the perception area down in the most artistic sense. I see things as I would like them to be. I am capable of writing a verse, or a poem, or an essay, about something I have never felt. My talent does not lie in my ability to convey my emotions in an artistic way.

My talent lies in my ability to create them.
