Paolo Soleri's Glossary of Terms

Artisan

The methodical, humble, life long dedication to a well-honed skill applied to a medium, clay, metal, glass, wood, fibers, stone, plastics, images.....

Patience, repetitiveness, love for what you do and a sort of serenity unknown to craftsmen and artists typify the self-confident artisan. The artisan has deep roots in place and its past.
