Interesting points, scan.
I do seem to go from one to the other; music then art, art then music. I am certain my re-evaluation will lead to - if not a quantum leap in artistic development - greater satisfaction in the images I make. I have no illusions about being the greatest in anything but I know I'm competent enough to achieve my aims.
Oddly enough, just writing it out here and reading everyone's responses has kick started my creative flow. Every poster here has given me food for thought but ultimately, I have clarified and confirmed what I have believed for some time. Writing it down means I don't have to carry it around in my head any more; I can always refer back to this if I get stuck in a rut or find myself going down the same old road again.
There is a whole subtext about the Sam/Paul thing; it's a matter I addressed in a one act play a few years back. Maybe there's some scope for images in there. Not my plan to do any but if I ever get stuck for ideas, it's a useful backup.
