What does it mean to be an artist?
One thing that I know it means to be an artist is to make choices. Cut the fat. What do I want to say? Who do I want to say it to? Where is this coming from, and where is it going…what is…it?
I think it is deciding what it is to be an artist for you and walking through whatever landscape you need to walk through to practice that art and bring what is within you to the world, as your gift.
