It's a feeling, it's irrational.
Another thing boosting my feeling of being an artist rather than instructor is the upcoming art exhibition I'lle be trying to attend to with my works. It's an art exhibition for the young living in Häme-region. I'm really exited about it and yesterday started to paint with oilpaints (after so many years) to make a painting for the exhibition.
Ofcourse there's the chance that my works suck and none of them get to the exhibition and I pay for the jurying for nothing.
But 'cos I feel like an artist I'm ready to take a chance.
And as an icebreaker: I bought 2 black&white striped shirts from the fleemarket. It confirms that this "I am artist" things is just a phase.
