I don't like being called an artist..

It's true. If I don't like being described as someone/something, then it is being called an artist. I am not. I don't feel like one. When I think of the word "artist", people like Picasso, Van Gogh or Shakespeare come to my mind. I am a crafter. I make dolls. I call myself a doll maker. Whenever people ask me what I do for a living, my answer is "I make dolls". I feel I sound full of myself when I say "I'm an artist". And then when I show people what I am doing they are like "Oh, well that's different!" ..Yeah I know.

I might be artistic. But I really see myself as a crafter.

Does anyone else feel like this? Or are you proud to call yourself an artist, regarding what you do? Let me know!
