Okay, I've looked up the difference between goal and process oriented activities... and I'm afraid I don't "get" it. If I am building a house I would say it's more important to achieve the goal (get a safe, sturdy, structurally compotent house built that pleases the occupant) than to creatively construct and judge the product based on my own satisfaction instead of the satisfaction of the recipient. If I am drawing without the intet to make art then why am I drawing? When I used to draw I liked making comics, and while I never intended for them to be published or anything like that (I was thirteen, that goal would be quite a ways out of my reach) I still drew with the intent of making a comic that was competent with action, a coherent story,an overarching message, and more generally up to my expectations. Why would I draw to draw? That seems pointless. Again I can get appreciating art, even though that accomplishes nothing other than understanding of a work, but why CREATE if I'm not creating something worth creating?
