[art and artists] Slight Stumbles on the Way to Artistic Genius

A couple of faux pas:

1. While the book Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain was quite educational, it was ultimately a failure for me; I could never get past the surgery part.
2. Painting With Children was a similar travail; thier heads are too big, and they squirm. Also, the parents object.

(yes, it's a joke.)
