none of my teachers have ever told me that.
i was trained under a drill-and-drill environment, no 'heart' to speak of.
these years in educating my students, i've also learnt a lot, from looking and observing them. i have seen students with 20% art background, no colour sense, etc managed a piece of artwork we are all proud of. all done with 'heart'.
this applies to anything we do in life too, be it making a cup of tea or a big project.
recently i've tasted a difference in something done with and without 'heart'. the bbq cuttlefish tasted very different from 2 vendors using the same technique. the steps were exactly the same, the cuttlefish were of the same size. the taste was undoubtly may be a bit different, but this is not just A BIT, it is of great difference. it all comes down to making it with 'heart'.
i guess this is perhaps how we can find simple happiness in our chaotic life.

the roller to flatten the cuttlefish
