I have two, particularly, who can't sit still and draw to calm classical music without suddenly falling off the chair, expostulating loudly that something didn't come out right, bursting into tears because a drip of water got onto the paper, then 3 sec later maniacally laughing at some random untintelligeable memory, going to the bathroom and falling over her feet in the hallway, crying loudly for 5 seconds, coming back and announcing loudly, "Did you hear somebody crying?? That was me."(oh really?). Loud sudden inhales because the pencil lead broke... and then the other one with such tendencies, who appeared to be well settled, suddenly falls backwards off stool. Maybe there's something about water colors. Or maybe 2 of mine are genetically predisposed to avoid calm and peace at all cost.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09303555521251868671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6113159130315388122.post-41511576341684163782011-11-06T07:11:41.652-05:002011-11-06T07:11:41.652-05:00Have you tried other music types to see the differ...Have you tried other music types to see the difference in the painting outcome with different music. Painting with Phillip Glass, or even Pink Floyd or Yes. Some of the instrumental rock might give not be conducive to sitting.Nicknoreply@blogger.com
