Winston take on art from his own view

Winston take on the people that needs a hobby. Such humble point of view.

Fascinating!

Winston Churchill wrote a wonderful explanation of when he took up his hobby along with an explanation of what is mentally or physically good for people to take up their own hobbies. He encourages the reader (listener) to try the brush and canvas and use the eyes to closely examine the details of the scenes around and use the medium for a type of memory exercise. Do listen.

churchill was a poet of prose

beautiful turns of phrase, capacity to use words to describe the pleasure of art, and a new look at rest.
