I grew up thinking art was pictures until I got into music and found I was an artist and didn't paint.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I feel like I became an artist by default. I went to art college, but my interest was always more towards film than painting or sculpture.
I was always making things. Even though art was what I did every day, it didn't even occur to me that I would be an artist.
Seriously, I wanted to be an artist because I saw that it meant endless possibilities. I came from a badly managed family background, so art was a way of reinventing myself.
I grew up with artists.
I don't paint. I am a hobbyist photographer, so I relate to the visual arts that way, but I'm not a painter.
I'm quite arty. I didn't know whether to become an artist or musician but I realised I could paint with music. All my songs have colours.
It's true that there are people who live the idea of being an artist, as opposed to the idea of making art.
I make a good living and I've never looked at myself as being an artiste.
In my previous life, I was an artist. I still paint. I love art.
When I was in high school, I thought I might be an artist. I was very good at drawing and painting.
