Re: Artistic Gift
There is nothing about an ‘artist’s life’ that makes it different from a salesman or a nuclear scientist. Everyone has their own challenges and their own achievements. So called artists might use their creativity more but nothing else distinguishes one from the other. I’m pretty sure every single person is an artist in their own right. So labeling some as artists and others not so is pretty pretentious and just irrational. And this is coming from an artist 
Oh did I call myself an artist?
