Artist.

All of us are artists as creativity exists in each one of us.Only we have to discover or rather recover it.Pablo Picasso put it so aptly "Every child is an artist.The problem is how to remain an artist when we grow up. "

A home maker is creative as she makes use of leftovers & recycles containers,cases,etal.A child is creative when it makes innovative excuses of skipping school.Maids are being artistic when they rearrange things that they work with in a manner, that is handy to them ...it hardly matters that the things they use are detergents,soaps,dishwasher liquid etc.All arrangements have a beauty & purpose of their own.

In office,thinking out of box, is emphasized upon & yet more often than not,we frown on creativity.Artistic endeavours are supposed to  be the hobbies of the rich.This is so untrue.Even poor people are artists at work.The way they make use of their limited resources is artistry, in all its manifestations !

Nature is an artist as it is so beautiful.Artistry makes this world aesthetic !

All the progress that has been possible today is because someone thought differently about an idea & brought it to fruition despite the odds & the opposition.Moreover ,artistry promotes green action as it is recycling of ideas.Plastic recycling reduces pollution & that is  saying a lot ! There are other fringe benefits of providing jobs to the rag pickers etal & giving them a better life ! Hence ,as Picasso said ,we must try hard to remain artists throughout our lives !

You redefined artists. I had never thought of it this way. Always good to learn different perspectives.

This is a refreshing discussion about the idea of the artist and a perfect first post for the challenge. Thanks for sharing!
