Ce n'est pas un artiste

Over The Sabbath some friends and I discussed what it is that defines us. Defines me. Defines the artist. And what holds us back. Most certainly, it is I. That inability to make a leap in faith, that I can make stuff. That maybe someone will hate it and think it is hack work, but at least I defined myself as an artist. That the work I do is artistic as long as I call myself that.
