I'd still love to hear your opinion on my first observation: Are Artists ( as a whole) "different"?
Valerie,

I would say of course we are different. I would also say that in my opinion dentists are very different. CPA's are different. Politicians are different.

In my adult life I have had several professions. Honestly, at the beginning of each, I was incompetent in my own eyes. But my philosophy has always been, walk the walk, by the time they figure out I'm not what I say I am I will have already arrived. Peggy B's theory is right on the mark.

All people in all professions have self-doubt. If artists have a greater share it's because we are constantly involved in the work of creation.

I am an artist, who will stand against me? Who has devised a test to discredit me?
