to respond on behalf of art educators:
If you DID say something so ignorant and STUPID,you'd "guess"
wrong---just taking a brush and making a mark does NOT an artist
make....duh! So yeah, you do need to be not only talented, but
skilled and trained to be a an artist in the truest sense of the
word. And just so you know to be an art teacher, you not only
have to have artistic skills, you must complete art courses, you
as well as all the same education courses as well as art
education courses and must pass three certification tests in
order to be certified to teach art all-level...I've got a
Masters, all-level certification, AND Bi-lingual certification
from Pk-5th grade....that's probably more than you've got, Honey!
