there is currently a discussion going on about what it means to attain mastery within the context of an art or science in the group I’m involved in. Someone brought up that expecting people to use as close to period correct materials as we can get for all their stuff is going to price some people with the skill set, but not the means out of ever being able to be considered a master of their craft.

I actually see both sides of it, it’s hard to say you attained mastery of medieval methods if you’re not using medieval materials, but also this is a hobby.

Then the comment along the lines of “Of course it’s an expensive hobby, but people choose the art they want to do and they know what it’s going to cost.” was said

I normally like the person who said this, but nope. I didn’t go into this knowing how much accurate materials cost, and I think the further implication,, which I haven’t pasted above, but that was said, that people who are poor should just choose different art forms is a little ridiculous to say when we also theoretically want people to be doing things not just to be recognized but because they enjoy them.

I suppose I do see an inherent contradiction in wanting people to be passionate about their crafts and not to worry about whether or not they get an award let the same time telling them to trudge on the something they don’t like as much because it’ll be more likely to get them an award.
