So you want to be an Artist

So you want to be an ARTIST

You believe you have talent

You find beauty in things around you

So then you go to school

Now you’re educated

Not only are you better at what you do, you have become a critic…a historian

And boy, are you a critic!

You see the faults in every piece around your medium

The short falls of the Artist

The mistake, the danger

Your critical eye has come to light

Walk the Walk, Talk the Talk

Be prepared, your life will change

So now you know, you know the angles of light

You know how to mix the colours

You know where the shadows fall

But now you also know what should not be done

So you want to be an ARTIST
