He that works with his hands is a Laborer

He that works with his hands and his mind is a Craftsman

He that works with his hands, mind and his heart is an Artist

When you look at a persons work you can usually tell if that person cared. When a persons heart is involved in their work they do things that perhaps no one else would ever notice. It isnt done for price or recognition it is done for them. This is a quality that differentiates true artists from professionals. Discerning architects, designers, contractors and homeowners search high and low for these types of workers when they in turn care about the results.
