Astral saw no need to deny the very obvious truth before her: she was awful at art. Her therapist had recommended that Astral try something new, something calming, and in other circumstances, she would of have been a bit busy practicing for her upcoming fight against Luna and Celestia. But she had since mastered the Missile Spell, as well as the Concussive and Inferno Blast, and was keeping up with her hoof to hoof. So she decided to give art a try. This was a very obvious mistake. Her bowl of fruit looked more like a rock. "I don't even understand this. I only used bright colors, why did it turn out grey?" She muttered to herself, scrutinizing the portrait carefully for hidden clues. When she couldn't find any, she just sighed and asked for a new canvas, trying not to wince at the brief look of horror that crossed the instructors face.
