Do you consider yourself an artist?

[PixelRabbit]

Feels very bold to actually claim that, though. I have no actual education as an artist.

It does doesn't it? I felt the same saying it point blank but one thing I've learned by posting here, you HAVE to own it! Whether it is posting your work or saying you are an artist if you don't believe it nobody else will.

Looking at some of the work on here, I barely consider myself a photographer.

 

[Benco]

Artist, who also takes a few photographs.

Good girl.

However, it does help when you know your stuff. After that you can call yourself any damn thing you want to. With or without the beret!

I have a couple of Kangols. If I cock it over my right ear, does that count?
I occasionally cartoon. Does that count?
I've read a couple art design books. Does that count?
I've read a few photography books. Does that count?
I occasionally eat bacon. Does that count?

No? Okay then, Iz takz purdy pickchures.

Throwing 'bacon' into the mix is simply unfair. How could anyone resist?

 

[cgipson1]

Come on, People! MORE VOTES FOR BACON! (gotta keep things in perspective here!) lol!

 

[invisible]

As a card-carrying Bacon Artist, I think the poll is fraught with fraud.

 

[dbvirago]

Yeah, I used my poll results decoder ring and some people have claimed to be artists and bacon.

 

[mishele]

Yes...

 

[hippiebrian]

Okay, this dude made a bust of Kevin Bacon out of bacon. Now that's an artist!

 

[MiFleur]

I have such a nice collection of hats I can wear
Graphic designer,
Sales person
Business women
Mother
teacher
Photographer
and more
I think that my artistic sense has been used much more being a mother and a teacher than anything else.
For me being an artist is a mood that passes according to the situations I live.
But I do have some artistic abilities, however they don't define me.
and I like wine!
