Yeah, absolutely.
I've only ever been on a bike once.

[ And that was definitely not a regular ride. ]

Maybe you could even teach me to drive it sometime.

[revvedup]

yeah, i'd love to.
i'd say you can try giving me an art lesson in exchange but i'm pretty sure teaching you to ride might be an easier task.

[biscuity]

Why do you think you wouldn't be able to learn?

[revvedup]

art requires passion, doesn't it? i'm not sure that's something you can teach me.

[biscuity]

I guess, yeah, at least to a point.
Why don't you think you'd feel passion, though?
Don't you feel it about anything?

[revvedup]

generally, yeah. but isn't a different kind required to make good artwork?

[biscuity]

I don't think so.
Anyone can learn the techniques, then it's just... focusing that passion into the work.
You'll never know unless you try, right?

[revvedup]

yeah, and i guess i haven't really had the opportunity to give it a try.

[biscuity]

So let's do it.
You teach me to ride a bike, I'll give you some art lessons.
If it doesn't work out, at least you'll know for sure.
