Asians Can Be Picky...When It Comes to Art

Asians can be quite fickle and picky when it comes to who they let participate as a member of their own cultural arts community, practice, and industry...

I'm part Mongolian, of partial Chinese descent from forever ago. 

But technically, I do have Chinese DNA, so yes, if we're going by cultural biology, I'm partially a Chinese artist. I don't really have any Japanese DNA for the most part, so yes, I'm much more comfortable calling myself a quasi-Chinese artist (among other cultures) than a Japanese artist...Wuxia, Ink Art. Choreography. Heroic Bloodshed. Gun-Fu. Shaolin. Etc.

I'd much rather simply hope to be accepted by my respective and native cultures than merely to get rich, famous, or powerful off of my art.
