you "become" an artist by BEING one

or did you mean become a ___ artist? fill in the blank with words like ‘famous’, ‘expert’, ‘accomplished’, ‘good’, “paid”, “successful”.

you can become those, by being one. paint. draw. make. sculpt. create. do. when someone sees it and asks “are you an artist” say “yes”

i do a lot of drawing on ordinary un-ruled 3×5 cards. cause their cheap- 99 cents a pack and not hard to carry around. and if i ‘mess’ it up so what- paper was a penny a piece. then i take pictures of them, and give them away when someone likes it. i have the photo, i don’t need the card. let someone else enjoy it.
