People who make something of use, prefer to do it quietly often anonymously. They don't go around telling people "look at me, I'm an artist".. That's something for others to decide. Im not an artist, although I have wood workshop and produce awesome travel videos and photography. My sister in law works for christies auction house, so I have seen an art or two. Yours is much of an art as dry cow poop on a farm in Kentucky.
