Artist and Artisans
Artists vs. Artisan
Artists
● All fine artists first learn to sketch, and
begin with a pencil and sketch pad to
work with an idea on paper. Artists
transfer their visions to canvases or other
medium, and this may mean working in
oil, watercolor or pastels. Sculptors take
their sketches and create 3D products
from clay, marble or other material.
Illustrators might work for a publishing
or animation company, or create original
comic books. All artists' work aims to
create an overall reaction from a viewer.
Artisans
● are craftsmen who make practical artistic
products, such as earrings, urns, stained
glass and other accessories. Artisans gain
their knowledge by studying under
master craftsmen and then practicing
with continued study. Artisans work to
create something new, original, and at
times, provocative. They spend a good
portion of their time selling and
promoting their items in various
marketplaces.
Artists
● An artist on the other hand
is dedicated only to the
creative side, making
visually pleasing work only
for the enjoyment and
appreciation of the viewer,
but with no functional
value.

Artisans
● is essentially a manual
worker who makes items
with his or her hands, and
who through skill,
experience and talent can
create things of great
beauty as well as being
functional.
