| The wonder of discovery in children of all ages and the grandeur of the past are among the many things that inspire me. �Beginner�s Luck� blends old with new, sophistication with playfulness and wisdom with innocence. The humour (hopefully) is in the juxtaposition. The unabashed pride and joy in little Matthew�s �look what I did!� expression added considerably to the charm as well as to the theme. Of course, the main idea comes from every artist�s desire to create a masterpiece, the next Mona Lisa if you will, ever since we first put pencil to paper or paint to canvas. |
