An Artist...

Relies on their own motivation to build structure, and then relies on structure to build motivation.

Metabolizes pain into communication.

Plays offense.

Creates order out of chaos.

Fails regularly by pushing up against boundaries.

Creates a colony of supporters outside the status quo.

Holds onto roots, or loses themselves in their ego.

Changes based on intuition and interest, always leading ahead of the market.

Discounts advice.

Treasures inspiration from history and other artists.

Disappears into their work at their at their best.

Attempts to prove their worth at their worst.

Has flaws,

But remains open to the world...
