Life as an artist
In this forum we all post about painting, modernist vs. traditionalist painters, abstract vs. realist. We post on direct painting of alla prima and about underpainting and glazes. We post about the use of lead paints and turps. vs. more healthy alternatives. We post about at the state of art education today.
Well, here is a thread about "What it is to be a artist today." No discussion on technique or style or about whose art deserves to be art. We all are at different stages in art. Some of the members are FT professional artists who earn their livings in art. Some are young and have just started to dream of a career as an artist.
Still others have lived part or most of their lives doing something else to earn a living. Some are now are taking up painting or have always dreamed of a career in the arts if only life
