The Big Question: Do I Need Talent to Be an Artist, or Can I Learn It? And Who Was Dr. Henery?

Unraveling the fundamental question of whether talent is born or built

In the debut episode of Artsy Types, Teresa and Joy talk about the magical concept of talent and the role practice plays in artistry, but not before a shot of tequila. The two artists have a quick discussion of signet rings, their high school English teacher Dr. Henery, and the composer Sibelius.
