After I finished the biography of Steve Jobs, and now moving on to Kurt Cobain, it got me thinking of the makings of an artist.
I believe great artists are made up of part creativity, part artistic skills.
For the latter, my thought is it relies a lot on the brains ability to easily and comprehensively decompose and then reconstruct sensory data. They develop that skill by being great admirers and mimickers of great art… then the creative side kicks in.
Told you it was quick. Will have to find some time to flush this thought out, until then it will remain stuck in my head…
