Education Does Not Make an Artist | Quazen
t’s a good thing that artists and writers don’t have to be licensed. We don’t need a degree from Yale or any of the hundreds of other academies around the world. We can pick up our pen or paints and work to our hearts content. We can follow our bliss with little schooling or training. And believe it or not some of us succeed with a capital S. One American artist did just that. He lived near a little town called Summerville, Ga. He was a blue collar worker who lived within his earnings and with what he could make with his own hands. This man build a home in the mill village of Trion, Ga. with found materials and roofed his home with flattened out tin cans. It was a masterpiece of workmanship.
