The meaning behind "He's an how-to-artist, not an artist."

Study of commercialized hackneyed stamps, along with the art communities of before.

Yep, I'm going back to discover the true meaning behind the usage.

Instruction manuals are overrated, especially if one plays out of the edges of what is considered commercial art.

When there was a ratchet in place, data, industrialization and commercialization occurs, and this has occurred with art pedagogy. Tempting one to become a rubber stamp.

Following along the lines of what is popular rather than what is good.

So that's what happened.

So Chistopher Hart is a cautionary tale of what happens, and the once Conceptart organization is another tale of what one tries to gate keep professional artistry with its monetization.
