"That's why I want to be an artist, because I want to be someone." What? You want to be a penniless, starving, underappreciated someone in a garret? (j/k) To me, that statement indicates that you don't think of yourself as an artist yet. That doesn't mean you won't get there or that the works you currently produce aren't without merit. I'm not an artist (visually... I have a higher opinion of my writing) - not yet. But I enjoy what I do, and sometimes, with the help of Poser, Bryce, whatever, I manage to make something that looks at least a bit like the picture I had in my head to start with. That's art - the pic in my head. Maybe I haven't always got the hang of translating that to the screen yet, but hey, it's all good practise :)
