Do you listen/talk while you paint?

[Timothy C. Tyler]

"Books on Tape" unabridged from the library. Tons of choices. I can listen passively all day and do. Our house is always busy and loud and my studio is in the house (but I have brick walls).

I can talk sometimes, depends on the subject. As I go into tough parts, I'm told my speech starts to sound like, "Yes, well, I was uhhh...I mean... well...what was the question?"

I been trying to learn French but there's no way to do that and paint. Uses the same part of the brain, I quess. I can drive and learn French. Go figure.
