I am currently reading a book about music and its relationship to the human body called The Music Effect by Daniel J. Schneck and Dorita S. Berger. In one section, the authors address the importance of progress through small steps in a clever way. Reflecting on the periodicity of all energy (in the form of waves), Schneck and Berger propose that the functions of the human body also demonstrate the desirability of repetition as a means toward an accomplishment. Our bodies would be unmanageable if we had lungs large enough to hold one breathe that could last a lifetime. Our hearts must pump our blood over and over again, and so on. The argument proposes some fun situations for the imagination (a stomach large enough to store all the food we need for the rest of our life...)
Nevertheless, this is my first attempt at painting a cartoon face with no reference. I should probably do it over and over again if I want to get better.
