If one is uncomfortable with the term, "Artist," one could always call oneself a "CG Visualiser" or some such. My mother was the first national anchorwoman on Canadian television, but never once called herself a "Journalist." She preferred the term, "Broadcaster," which she felt was more accurate and less pretentious. Whatever floats one's boat, I say. I would hope that the primary motivation for anyone here is to make pictures to please themselves first. Anyone who wants a job where the customer is always wrong should become a cop. ;D

Peace, all.
