Hi Keith,
"The arrogance of those who can draw is supported by the cultural acceptance that some people are really skilful at drawing while most people are pathetic."
Sorry- I'm struggling to understand the above statement. Are you suggesting that people who 'can draw' are arrogant? And are you suggesting that the popular misconceptions about innate 'skill' in drawing are well founded? I'd be grateful for clarification.
One of the things I point out regularly to my students is that I can now draw just about well enough to know how badly I draw.
Best wishes,
Martin
