An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have. Andy Warhol


An artist needs to keep their work for themselves because they are the ones that made it, and other people may take credit for their work. Another way this could be analyzed, is, sometimes artist create things that people should not have because it is something that they do not understand, or don't get the full meaning of, when artists know the deep meaning of their creation and other people may take it in a way that it was not meant to be taken.
