Would you please give me your opinions about the following subjects and answer any questions you would care to. I would really appreciate it.
Thank you.

*Why did you choose being a photographer over being a painter or other type of artist?
*Do you consider photography an art? Why? Why not?
*Name aspects of painting (drawing, sculpting, etc.) that are in common with photography.
*Aspects that are not in common.
*Do you know of any people who are painters or sculptors and photographers and successful in both areas? Can you give me names so I can research these people?
