Is that the answer?
Am I an "Artist"?
What is an artist?
Who decides?

Do I give myself that title?
Or does someone else?

Is it when I sell my first piece?
Or give my first show?

Perhaps from the moment I created my first work?
Or maybe my hundredth?

What makes it a profession?
When is it just a hobby?

Does it depend on how many hours I put in?
Must you be formally trained?

I'm not sure I understand.
It all seems rather arbitrary.
I still can't figure out the answer.
