Time to submit something! I actually started this several months ago but because it was summer and because I started a new job and because of other silly reasons I just recently decided to finish it up.
My second Grace Kelly drawing. I'm happy to say I think I've made some improvements over my last drawing from a couple of years ago [link]

Graphite on 11x14" Paper.

Thanks for viewing!

This is AMAZING! Your hat detail is unmatched, her face perfect, eyebrows luxurious; and her eyes and lips shimmer! What a wonderful artist you are! :heart:

much better compliment is to say he's wonderful drawer instead. ;)
Because that's what he showed here, that he's amazing drawer, not amazing artist.
Not that he isn't artist too.. but not in this case... ;)

We want encourage this person and their ability. To say they are not an artist is not right. I appreciate your definition. But it isn't accurate. This person created this form of art by using a pencil and other tools. I am an artist and write as well. To give more of my credentials, I have worked for IBM (fortune 100 company) for many years as a secretary. I pretty much have enough knowledge about the English language. To give some information, here's a definition of "artist." (from Bing search) You can pretty much use search engines available and come up with a like definition.

Art·ist

1.creator of art: somebody who creates art, especially paintings or sculptures
2.performer: a member of the performing arts
3.skilled person: somebody who does something skillfully and creatively

Synonyms: painter, illustrator, drawer, sketcher, cartoonist, sculptor

Thank you for your understanding.

I agree with you. Art is when you create something. He didn't create anything. He just copied a photo. So a photo created something.
You create art when you use your head and your own imagination, not when you use a reference. So he's amazing drawer, not artist.
Which makes him amazing. He rocks. ;)
I don't start a fight, don't get me wrong. :hug:
