I feel my &quot;work&quot; to be a complete mixture of craft and art. However, I feel reluctant to call myself an artist, but I really couldn&#39;t explain why that is. It feels a little presumptuous. But then I am proud of my work and have put it into group exhibitions and shown my things at show and tell sessions.......... So, logically I should call myself an artist unless I am following someone else&#39;s design. </p> <p>Mandy:)</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>http://www.knittingdaily.com/forums/thread/16685.aspxMon, 07 Jul 2008 18:33:48 GMT44ce05d4-61e0-4251-b9ba-686eafad3c9f:16685Liz Good0http://www.knittingdaily.com/forums/thread/16685.aspxhttp://www.knittingdaily.com/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=58&PostID=16685<p><font size="2">Do you see yourself as&nbsp;an artist or craftsperson?</font></p> <p><font size="2">For me, it depends on the project...for example&nbsp;when I make my standard by-the-pattern baby sweater for a friend I feel crafty,&nbsp;and when&nbsp;I&nbsp;design/customize something myself I feel artistic, like it really says something about me.</font></p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
