Technique

You can not do what you want to do unless you know the correct technique. The only other way you can learn how to do it is by doing it yourself, which would take twice as long than if you went to school.

(Boris Vallejo, Peruvian Artist)

Art school is different from life university, for in the school of life applicable wisdom is more valuable than theoretical knowledge. You can learn about something till you are blue in the face but the wisdom that remains with you for the rest of your life is in the act of doing. In other words, the phrase "life, be in it" is what increases your experience and wisdom levels.
