    An artist is an expert at seeing reality, relatively speaking. It’s the power, and the exercise of it, that makes him an artist.

      I don’t know about that. Many artists are too preoccupied trying to figure out how to conceptualize their experience, which is exactly the opposite of seeing reality.

      If I need to buy new curtains, I’m ok with asking an artist which color to choose. However, when switching to a newer car, I think should ask a car mechanic instead.
