It was your eyes that saw the colour, your brain that interpreted it, your heart that felt its beauty.

You didn't love it because they're the Blue Artist, but because you were always a person who could love the sky. 4/

inexhaustive list to keep in mind, if youre a young person (esp. a young woman) breaking into a creative field / interacting with a creative professional w/ a lot of clout & $$ (or when interacting w/ fans):
