Hands

As a child I never dreamed of becoming the next great painter or musician. My artistic talent and I were hardly even acquainted, as woefully seen in the scans below. I was clearly trying to draw a bent arm, it looks as if I tried really hard - regardless of how naughty it may sound or look now.

 

And it all started from this: 

See how the arms are just not right for rowing?... or for anything else really. Neither are the body or head, but that's neither here nor there, or anywhere. 

Later on, when I was 13 or 14 I gave it another valiant try, drawing what I could see from the room I stayed in while spending a two weeks vacation with a family in Austria. This image is not as dramatic as those above, but alas, clearly still at the level of a six year old.

And yeah, I didn't become a second Beethoven either, just a great music lover.
