Edit: the way I see it, games are art. They are born from an idea and are shapen by people who invested in that idea. You don't teach other people how to and how not to do art.
You do teach other people how to art. People pay hundred of thousands of dollars to be tough how to do art. Doing art doesn't shield you from criticism. Making art doesn't mean making whatever hell you want.
Artist is someone who develop his craft to the point of being one of a kind. It's a mastery of a highest level.
An artist can have ideas that people don't comprehend but putting poorly put together cutscenes of digital puppets rubbing against each other is not that.
