| | |  What is a good artist
Hello everybody !
I have to do a small writing on the subject "What is a good artist".
I wanted some people to read it and correct my mistakes.
Thank you very much for your help ! :)
English Writing :
An artist is by definition someone who has a remarkable talent.
For me, the good artist follows his choices and convictions.
For example Dali criticized other artists, saying the only one he ever
liked was Picasso because he was the one who doesn't submissed his
talent to the law or to the judgment of others.
The good artist has to produce dreams whose interpretation bring
others a special feeling or reflexion through the themes broached or
through the representation of the subject.
The final idea or concept doesn't have to end on politics or on a
debate but just ideally on a personnal theme of the autor. That
is what really interested me at the most.

Rather than small writing, say brief composition.  |

Never with horseradish. Here, we eat it with green choking  mustard and soy sauce. |
