What does it mean to practice art?

You must practice art to find yourself. If you have an agenda for the world and you want to propagate it through art, then do it. But do it perfectly. Try to refine it. Try to create a greater work. When you try to do that, you will be more refined.

So you will start ART to mock "your archetype." Eventually, you will end up finding the soul of that being.

That is art. It is craft. Craft needs discipline. Discipline creates man. You will understand the greater meaning behind everything. You will become a complete artist when you transcend your ego and can abide in your "self."

Then don't talk to others who pretend to be one. Especially in the time of social media.
