Being an Artist

John The artist, Behind those iconic glasses, a pair of
dark eyes cover the mind in his head, the mind of a legend.
His artistic cogs at work turning in his mind as he writes 
timeless songs, invents with iconic albums, writes two great
books, and illustrates them in his own unique style. A true 
Artist. There are those who say the beatles were handed their
career on a plate and became famous over night. These people
dont really know much at all. They all worked for years night 
after night in Hamburg and toured England trying to make a 
name for themselves. Being an artist myself (even though its not
the same kind of art) i know all to well how hard it is to get 
started in the world of art. Music, or visual art its all hard. If 
your a painter, how do you make people interested in your art?
An illustrator, how do you get people wanting your work?
An actor? A musician? A lot of people try for years and  years,
or even most of their lives without any luck at all. But in this 
era of cheap art prints in Ikea and on ebay, and the radio's playing
one direction and teen pop music, is a true artist even really
appreciated anymore? Or have we lost it forever? 
I don't know how it will end up, and but i know that its important
to keep people like John Lennon alive in the memories of 
people, a true artist and a true musician!
