What it means to be an artist.

It means feeling things in an exaggerated sort of way.

It means sorting through tough times with colors and words, form and composition.

It means seeing happiness and sadness in the way of light and dark.

It means knowing that something could be better or being content with the outcome.

It means fighting off the need to push harder to be the best and realizing satifaction comes from inside.

It means having the love of someone who recognizes the possibility of bringing out the best in each of you.

Being an artist is more then a hobby. It's a way of life.
