Its a big topic=3D2C Art and Craft. I've been involved with the Arts =

Artists talk about their 'Work". that the craftsmanship involved in the fi=

an Art Work. When you Hone your Craft the rest falls into place. You can=

usually tell when an Artist has put his Job before his Ego. And when its t=

gs because you might not get their vision because they didn't have the chop=

s to pull it off=3D2C so they should become writers.
=3D20
You may call Art a Vocation=3D2C but after that=3D2C its still a Job.

Good art always appears effortless=3D2C which is the deceptive aspect. It=

Seems' easy. Until you try it.

Artisan=3D2C but I'll try not to get ahead of myself.
