Indie means you’re not waiting around for permission. Indie means you create your own opportunities. Indie means you set your sights on a goal — and then you make it happen with whatever resources you have at the moment.

To me an artist is a practitioner.
An artist practices his/her craft. An artist seeks feedback from trusted sources in order to improve. An artist wants to grow. An artist needs to continually move forward. An artist is actively engaged in their craft. Whatever it may be.
