"Don't diminish them by putting them in a basket with me labled "everyone is an artist."

I've yet to see someone claim that "everyone is an artist". The exact quote was:
"I think everyone is an artist in their own way."

Does something have to hang on a wall for it to be considered art or it's creator artistic? Before digital came along for me, I considered myself artistic in that I am always creating something. From my own crochet patterns to my jewelry, I consider myself an artist and it has little to do with my gallery here. I don't paint but I've proven I can. I personally choose digital over painting but I combine all my talents when I consider myself an artist.

If you're artistic, you're artistic and no one can tell you that because it's not oils or pastels that it doesn't count.
