Talent

It's been too long a while since I blipped any of Mrs IttH's art work, but today she finished a very bespoke commission - there was a l-o-n-g list of things it had to include: a pig, a stranded minivan, dates, words, specific wild flowers.... And all are there in the requested form of a tree in of life.

Talent isn't, in my experience, an ethereal divine gift. Its application, dedication and diligence albeit often glazed with a glitter of brilliant individualism.
