Here are my theories about "masterpieces" and those who create them.
First, and most obvious, a masterpiece does not know it will be a masterpiece until it is. So, for a masterpiece to be, it has to be started. In short - "Paint."
Second, for every masterpiece created by a master, there are hundreds, if not more, works that will never be "masterpieces" created by the same hand, but whose masterful parts may show up in "the one" - the masterpiece. The synopsis here - "Paint, a lot."
Third, creating anything is trouble, even for a master. What makes a masterpiece is the fact it has been made to look masterfully effortless.
So, to sum it up -
"Painting is hard work, but the more you do it, the task itself becomes automatic, allowing the mind to create genius."
One day, I will lay down a piece of paint that will be the piece that carries me from the mundane to the extraordinary. One day, I will be a master. Until then, I will paint.
