Can anyone become an artist?

Yes.

We are all creative people.

Those, who are free and comfortable, are more likely to explore their creativity

in expressing and sharing aesthetic ideas. A chance to be called an artist

comes along with that exploration.

Those who are called artists are recognized in certain cultures,

in certain times of history. Often, they are found among distant cultures, in new times.

In other words, becoming an artist, rests in the minds of peoples

who nurture their consciousness of cultural existence.
