About this episode
Objectively speaking, you’re an artist if you make art. even if it’s not up to your standards. If you paint, you are a painter, objectively, regardless of if the painting is bad. I am sure we have all been to museums with famous pieces that not only didn’t move us, but they kinda sucked. But would you not call Jackson Pollack an artist just because he got famous for a simple style of throwing paint onto a canvas? If you don’t know Jackson Pollack - he got super famous for the splatter type paintings, which is reenacted in many preschool classrooms because of it’s simplicity. But if you look back, he was an incredibly talented painter prior to bringing that style to the forefront. If you only see that splatter, today, on a backdrop of detailed paintings, you may misunderstand the work on the backend that he put in to get there.
