# Qualities of an Artist

Based on my encounters with people and works, I have identified qualities that make an artist.

#### Perseverance

Perseverance is the intensive work attitude towards accomplishing the task. A little theory or an equation is enough to solve a problem, but practising this over a problem corpus and time-constrained testing would produce quality work.<br>

#### Incremental approach

With the incremental and iterative approach, they accomplish the task. Each incremental step itself is functional and objective.<br>

#### Resilience

The amount of time, strength, and the number of attempts, regain from fall, all losing without morale.

#### Practical

Artists are extremely practical. They know what material - people or things are made of because they have spent long enough time studying and observing. They know their strength, how much work they can do, what is impossible.

#### Understanding of the self

Before anything, they know themselves - their habits, mood cycle, impatience, thoughts, desires, etc. They are not afraid to be alone with thoughts.

#### Long term Training

These people undergo phenomenal training in years either through schooling or hard lessons taught by hunger and bureaucracy.

#### Consistency

They make it perfect the first time, the tenth time and every time. Knowing the ingredients and how they interact, artists have a template of actions. One way to achieve consistency is by writing down the materials, working with them, and timing for various steps in as vivid detail as possible.

#### Ability to stay silent

One thing an artist learns after an understanding of the art is to know the subtlety of work. They naturally will become humble.

#### Confidence

Artist is well versed in understanding their position in surroundings.

#### Gentleness

The artist become mindful of the precision of the tools, makes gentle maneuver&#x73;*.*&#x20;
