If you were an artist, what would your medium be?

This is sort of a trick question, because I absolutely believe that all of us are creative, however, not all of us turn our creativity into a vocation in the arts! 

Does an immediate answer come to mind when you read this question or is it a challenge to imagine how you would want to create if you were an artist? 

If you did have an immediate answer (paint! music! dance!), do you have a creative practice that lets you enjoy that medium even if it's not your full-time vocation? 

If you didn't have an immediate answer think back to your earliest memories of play. What did you gravitate towards? What gave you joy? What astounded you when you discovered it? 

If you have made a career in the arts, why did you pick the medium you did? What was it about that medium that drew you to it?
