I agree practice makes perfect, the more you do the more proficient you become. Although I don't consider painting work, I consider it a joy and a pleasure, because that's what I want to be doing, so for me it doesn't seem like work. When I'm painting the time just just zips by so quickly I can hardly believe it. So I spend a great deal of time in joy and pleasure. Shame on me.
I see work as something you do in order to survive, but you would rather be doing something else. With all of the jobs that I have had in the past my mind was always thinking about painting. I couldn't wait to get home and pick up that brush.
If a person is able to love what they are doing and enjoy the process you're not working, you're living life to the fullest.
