What does it mean to be an artist?

To be an artist you must be willing to take chances and seek new opportunities that life hands you. Stand out, be unique, and hold nothing back. You should strive to be different from everyone else, and express your own thoughts and opinions. Be passionate about your artwork, and help others to see the beauty in life through art. “People who have a fear of the unknown, but who are willing to take a chance – to jump in to do the work anyway. That’s what being an artist means to me”.
