Seems today every Tom. Dick and EmmyLou is a creative entrepreneur. But I often ponder, what exactly is the difference between true creative art and a gimmick disguised as art. What are the fine variables that define the artist from the entrepreneur? The art that emotes from the art that revolts? How does an artist find success if he or she is not motivated by money? Is the artist who is motivated by it any less creative? How do connections play in?
There are theories and definitions that have been written through the ages about this so I won't go on and on.
I just needed to get this off my chest.
