Your art practice is your art making, the process you go through to make an artwork. This process is not only the physical process you go through to create your artwork but also the critical and historical studies of art you undertake to create your artwork. This means by gaining knowledge of art and art history, you are able to make education choices about how you physically construct your artwork and create concept and meaning within your work. As an artist (because you are an artist now!!!) you respect the different views that circulate and are exchanged in and about the visual arts and you apply them to your practice. No one artwork is ever created without reflecting the world is was created in. Every artist has an art practice.
