HEAD.HAND.HEART

So a while back I stumbled upon a quote from St. Francis of Asissi which really struck a chord.
"He who works with his hands is a laborer. He who works with his hands and his head is a craftsman. He who works with his hands and his head and his heart is an artist."
Head. Hand. Heart. These three elements are central to the work of an artist. Yet are they not equally vital to other professions? Although I am partial to the arts, I would venture to say that in order to find fulfillment in any vocation there must be a combination of these essential ingredients.

I think an artist criteria can apply to any profession. as an artist, you are creative and original, thinking outside the box in whatever venture it may be.
