Nancy Spero
Becoming an Artist

2
00:00:11,134 --> 00:00:14,618
I thought doomed to be an artist growing on,

3
00:00:14,869 --> 00:00:18,538
because I rather drew over the margins of my textbooks than..

4
00:00:18,938 --> 00:00:21,201
than actually doing the classwork.

5
00:00:21,633 --> 00:00:25,017
I was never interested in doing anything else..

6
00:00:25,017 --> 00:00:26,618
..I hadn't liked Highschool,

7
00:00:26,618 --> 00:00:28,986
I hadn't liked University..,

8
00:00:28,986 --> 00:00:32,621
but I LOVED Art school.

9
00:00:33,047 --> 00:00:36,775
So that's when I decided to be an artist,

10
00:00:37,154 --> 00:00:39,198
just to go at it.

11
00:00:42,355 --> 00:00:46,387
But I was kind of worried about being an artist

12
00:00:46,669 --> 00:00:50,795
that was.. the only thing I felt I could do was draw and paint

13
00:00:50,952 --> 00:00:53,907
and it was the only thing I wanted to do

14
00:00:54,004 --> 00:01:00,193
and yet, for some strange reason, I think I felted it was no use to society.
