My partner and I create.
At times we are craftspeople.
At times we are artists.
Occassionally we are "artesians."<--------------------{intentional
misspelling for you
We are also businesspeople. lugheads who
will argue the point)
We happen to make our living using the same materials we use to create
art.
Some people make their living by teaching, so they can create their art.
Some people are lawyers and dentists to make their living, so they can
create their art.
Some people work for the government to make their living, so they can
create theirart.
Some people WORK to make their living, so they can create their art.
Some people are married to people who make their living, so they can
create their art.
Some people are born into wealthy families, so they don't have to make a
living, so they can create their art.
And a very select few actually make their living with their
art.<---------{be honest now)
It doesn't matter what someone does for a living what matters is their
art, not what it is, but, is it art.
Frankly, it doesn't even really matter if they are making art.
What matters in this world is are they happy? Are they doing something
that at the very least isn't hurting anybody else? And if possible are
they making other peoples' journey through life a little easier?
I agree with the comment concerning arguing about "is it art?" being
masturbation, but, hey everybody does it. Be honest how many of you are
"Master of your domains."
