RE: Sorry, But No, Not Everyone Is An Artist
I feel it, but where is that line drawn?
Google define says:
a person who creates paintings or drawings as a profession or hobby.
synonyms: creator, originator, designer, producer, fine artist; More
informal
a person who habitually practises a specified reprehensible activity.
"rip-off artists"
Perhaps the 'poseurs' are still artists of sorts, just rip-off artists (;
It is hard somewhat. But I would argue that in the modern world we define art incorrectly! Now it is simply about "expressing yourself" whereas before it was about about trying to make something for others that would edify.
Then there is that in between place where we aren't good yet but need to start. It's tricky, but maybe not as complicated as we make it?
And yes.. many 'poseurs'! lol
