PART 1

The main point from article one proposes the need for innovators to develop artistic qualities to see the world in a different perspective.  The main point for article two points out the similarities between artist and entrepreneurs.

Artist can make their dreams reality by gaining support from a network of people and finding companies that complement their abilities. As artist are skilled in craft and creativity they also need to acquire organization and systems in which they may find the right people to collaborate with and bring their vision into life.

I agree that artist are entrepreneurs because there is a desired vision that one has and in order to see that vision happen an artist must have many different qualities. In the second article “Are Artist Entrepreneurs” they mention the drive of passion, I feel that this is very important as an artist/entrepreneur because when something gets in front of the dream that passion ignites and defeats whatever is blocking the way.  There are many stages to the journey and the artist/entrepreneur will have to learn from every situation that comes across.

I agree with the 12 characteristics an artist should emulate, I would also add the collaboration between artist to create the vision desired with a positive support system.

I enjoyed both articles, they both have it’s similarities and differences in supporting facts about artist and entrepreneurs.
