RE: Looking at Art: How We Assign Different Priorities to Different Parts of Life

in #art8 years ago

I would like to call myself an artist, but I cannot bring myself to do anything artistic much anymore. I want to express my thoughts and feelings, and my hands stumble over the words and forget their lines. When I manage to create a piece, it gets drowned out by a sea of those who have far greater skill. Sadly, I possess little money, and cannot pay what the artworks are worth, even if I wanted to do so. I hope to one day be able to call myself an artist. Now to get my hands to play their part.

Thanks for sharing @atomramble! It is not for me to tell anyone what to do... but I would suggest you keep in mind that art is about YOUR expression, not about the skills and abilities of "other people." YOU are the one expressing thoughts and feelings... not them; your life is YOUR life.

Thank you for reminding me. That is something so easily forgotten.
