I agree with you. The term "artist" has been thrown around way to loosely in recent years. I think it's time to restore the term to it's original meaning, i.e. those who paint and sculpt. Musicians aren't artists . They. are. musicians. Writers arent' artists. They are writers. Skateboarders aren't artists either, but they may be creative. Many people in many fields can certainly be thought of as being creative.
This whole topic is a pet peeve of mine. I am a REAL artist. I actually use paintbrushes, paint, and canvas.
OMG I CAN'T BELIEVE I AM IN THE PRESENCE OF A REAL ARTIST. THIS IS SUCH AN HONOR. READING THIS FORUM IS NOW THAT MUCH MORE SPECIAL SINCE YOU HAVE ENLIGHTENED US, O WIELDER OF THE PAINTBRUSH.
