I would actually argue that artist in and of themselves are entrepreneurs. The small self employed variety, but still an entrepreneur nonetheless. A person can be an amazing creative, yet still balance it with the logical, business mind. Unfortunately the world is ran and operated on cold, hard cash, and that's not going to change anytime soon. This is why most of us as artist have personal work, and commercial work. As artist, we do have the ability to negotiate the terms of our agreements, and what we will and wont do. Perhaps being that entrepreneur, and capitalizing on your talent to create wonders with a pencil or brush, IS soul searching for some. Lastly, artist should not be letting society dictate what they should and should not create, unless they are paying for it; and even then, I still get to decide whether or not to go through with it depending on whether I deem it ethical or not. Artist should instead be learning to negotiate, and embrace being able to capitalize on their work. It's how most of us earn a living after all.

Just a thought.
