PBS has a great trove of videos concerning the creative process, various art career and in their Digital Studio and Offbook Short Video Series. I highly recommend checking them out on Youtube. " I Could Do That" in one that covers alot of ground ... voice, intent, skill and criticism.
All excellently and concisely explained in 5 minutes.
Please give this a look the next time you feel saying..."my toddler could do this." or recommend it to the person you overheard say it.
Though I must admit, I do think technical skill is getting short shift in this...
I do firmly believe that if one wants to be an expressive artist, they need to take the time and training to develop a base skill set. Then whether or not they decide to use it in their body of work is up to them.
If one decides to act as an expert they should be able to run with the big dogs occasionally.
Really if they promote themselves as an artist shouldn't they have the skills to back it up?
