A6. Pen & Water.
I've been practicing my violin for the past 25 years and only now have I realised the following...
I PLAY MY VIOLIN. It's not my technique, nor my brothers, parents, teachers or friends. It is me. It is my sound. I may not be a master, but I can choose what I do with it.
It seems there is a certain comfort in noticing that the work of art is not just the composition, or the wooden violin, nor the sound that is produced, but also the human form and the way it goes about such a thing. It is fascinating, complex, and yet easy and unbelievably common.

Try it!
Just before you do something creative , state it...
'I PLAY THIS VIOLIN'
'I DRAW WTIH THIS PEN'
'I EXERCISE WITH THIS BODY'
Somehow it make it loads more fun!
DO IT.
Oh. And another thing. There's no such thing as 'violin practice'.
It's either performing or exploring. If it's not that, it's nothing.
THIS I MY BODY.
