Nancy Spero
Becoming an Artist

I thought doomed to be an artist growing on,

because I rather drew over the margins of my textbooks than..

than actually doing the classwork.

I was never interested in doing anything else..

..I hadn't liked Highschool,

I hadn't liked University..,

but I LOVED Art school.

So that's when I decided to be an artist,

just to go at it.

But I was kind of worried about being an artist

that was.. the only thing I felt I could do was draw and paint

and it was the only thing I wanted to do

and yet, for some strange reason, I think I felted it was no use to society.
