"There are two men inside the artist, the poet and the craftsman. One is born a poet. One becomes a craftsman."French Writer
1840 - 1902
There are two sides to every artistic creation: the creative and the analytical, the poet and the craftsman, the writer and the editor. These are two sides of the same coin. We need both the spontaneity of creation and the analysis of the editor. The poet is who we are on the inside — who we were born to be. The craftsman learns certain behaviors to fit into the expectations of society. If you draw it this way, you are accepted and considered a genius. If you deviate from the expectations of the masters, you are an amateur and labeled no good. If I had to choose between the poet and the craftsman, I would choose the poet. I would rather create than edit.
