My Skills As An Artist

Well... I would like to preface this entry by saying how short this is going to be.  I have no skills as an artist.  I drew a "self-portrait" of myself, and i looked like a baboon.  Or, well, maybe i just look like a baboon.  I think that some of my weaknesses are getting caught up in every little detail, and trying to make things perfect.  This is a weakness because i spend so much time worrying about little, minute details, that i am not able to accomplish the "big picture."  Also, I draw what i want to see, not what i actually see.  What a bummer.  I think that my strengths are being able to talk while i am making art, and not getting distracted to the point where i a, not working.  I have raised that to an art-form.  No pun intended.
