Is there such thing as talent in art?
Question from Carmen, Drawing Academy student
“How can you spot talent or aptitude in a person or an artist? I mean: were artists like Michelangelo or Da Vinci talented in what they do or is it just because they worked harder than others?
I have a Russian art teacher to whom I go to twice a week. I am passionate in art and want to make it a profession for me.”
Feedback from Vladimir London, Art tutor
Dear Carmen,
Thank you for your question. It is good that you mentioned Michelangelo. Here’s what he said:
“If people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery, it wouldn’t seem so wonderful at all.”
I really like your wonderful artwork and wish you all creative success you deserve.
Best regards,
Vladimir London
