At the risk of being accused of stating the bleedin' obvious, I have just arrived at this conclusion. To practise the art of painting or drawing you must do it alone. To make music, you do it with others.
It's late in the evening and I've just seen a great 'prom' concert on the BBC. The precision pumping of the bows of the violins and cellos was mesmerising - all those musicians moving as one. I've been painting all week and spent the afternoon and evening playing fossilised rock with friends at a wonderful birthday party. I've enjoyed it all, the one, alone and the other with my fellow musicians.
Hence the revelation.
Time for bed.
