In fact, say scientists, while some are born with natural talent, anyone can learn to draw well. The only catch is that ‘like all difficult skills, one probably needs 10,000 hours of practice to become really proficient’. Don't worry if you can't match Michelangelo - practice makes perfect, say researchers Researchers at University College London believe those unable to draw are not seeing the world as it really is – and simply need to work on their visual skills. They say our preconceptions often cloud the way we perceive objects, leading us to distort them when we put pencil to paper. Good drawers have a more refined way of perceiving objects and putting them on the page. Rebecca Chamberlain, a psychologist who led the research, said: ‘Most people probably don’t become proficient because they don’t practise enough, and also they are put off by early failure – “It doesn’t look anything like it”.’ Miss Chamberlain and her colleagues conducted experiments investigating the role of visual memory in drawing. They believe skill results in part from an ability to remember simple relationships in an object such as an angle between two lines. Good visual memory is key to producing a masterpiece, like this painting by Benjamin Williams Leader, on show at the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery They also found people who could ignore an object’s surroundings and focus on detail were able to draw more accurately. And those who were able to ignore their preconceptions and view objects with a fresh eye also created better sketches. Miss Chamberlain said: ‘Surprisingly, it might be harder to draw something very familiar, such as a face, than something very novel, about which one has no preconceptions.’
Superstitious beliefs have kept many a couple separated until the ceremony, protecting their matrimonial fate from being doomed from the start. The...

In the summer of 2016, Anssi Lähteenoja, the founder of Soul Maté®, experimented with yerba mate in his home kitchen. He mixed yerba mate tea with exotic fruits and the rest is history. During his studies in the late 1990s, Anssi discovered the South American yerba mate, which, instead of traditional coffee, accompanied Anssi for many years as a loyal partner to cheer up and help him focus on creative work and working long hours as a recording artist and music producer. However, in addition to warm and strong tea, Anssi also longed for something more refreshing. He recalls: “On my part, unhealthy energy drinks and soft drinks loaded with added sugar were left on the store shelves. Wellness drinks seemed to lack the power and energy of maté. Between energy and wellness drinks, there appeared to be demand without supply. Who would take up the challenge?” Anssi took up the challenge and tried a mixture of yerba mate with various exotic fruits in his home kitchen in the summer of 2016. Anssi’s family served as taste testers, as he also wanted to share maté with his loved ones. He wanted to serve drinks in such a delicious way that they would also be interested in the natural and longer-lasting energy that maté provides. The experiments led to a vision of a new kind of fresher brand, whose soul is in music. “The more I thought about it, the more inspired I became and the more new ideas I came up with”, he remembers.
