"As an artist, what's important is to express what's inside of you. Don't worry about it being good enough; just do what your heart tells you. Play and don't get stressed out."
For those of you out there thinking "I wish I was an artist - if only I could ..." Many of the artists throughout history just did what they wanted, were confindent in themselves and just decided to start telling people they were an artist. You don't need formal training from the masters to start down an artist's path. Yes, learning from experienced artists is a great thing to experience and is definitely beneficial, but you don't need to get an MFA before you can announce proud and clear "I am an artist"!

The image is a piece I made during an image transfer class. I love to collect old photos discarded and alone in antique stores. I imagine I am rescuing their stories - ensuring they leave a mark on this world in one way or another.
