he would be likely to know who is or isn't. The opinionated are merely loud, I think.
In my view, if you say "I'm an artist", and you create your art; then you are. Critics are many; originals are few; opinions are cheap.
Van Gogh wasn't thought professional and Balzac was though a "hack" by his peers.
An after dinner speaker can be a soap boxer on the noon break, his audience not important. If he says he's a speaker and does in fact, speak; then he is... You are what you say you are if you perform.
