Moossy, at least you are just carry a book, imagine trying to be a visual artist in the 60s and your teacher is pushing you to paint bigger and bigger paintings and they have to be abstracts...and the only reason why I went to school of art it was to learn to paint portraits or to be an illustrator (comics books) but to be any of that was not only beneath the school aspirations but to do classic portraits and illustrations of comics .....were passe.

At all events, at the openings the teachers instructed us to just smile or agree with every body, you couldn't tell who was a critc or who was a potential buyer.

So to be nervous is quiet charming and Moossy at least you are not carry heavy, large paintings to the gallery and back home

I think Peta would understand, where is she?
