"Making It As An Artist"

FULFILL YOUR PURPOSE AND THE
ATTENTION WILL FOLLOW:
Each of us is created with a unique
personality that cannot be duplicated. Put that exclusivity to work in
your favor. Create in a way that comes only from your heart. The public
pays attention to that which is real, and the authentic Artist that fits
that description is no different. It is all right to be different from
others; otherwise, you will become stagnant in your personal growth as
well as in your career by following what everyone else is following, and
doing what others are doing. Fill your life with people who are caring
and supportive and those who love you for who you are. Seeking out those
who can engage you by their own uniqueness will enable you to become
successful and victorious. Allow your outlook to be set free through the
art medium for others to enjoy and to benefit from.
Ask yourself what you are looking to gain from your passion of art. Are
you looking for money and riches? Fame? Recognition? Notoriety? Status?
What price do you place on creation? Set your sights on fulfilling your
passion to create rather than pursuing the attention and glamour.
Fulfill your purpose and the attention will follow. With some patience
and determination, you will be successful and find yourself trying to
escape the attention that it brings. By no means should you compromise
your vision and what you and your art stand for. Unfortunately, I have
witnessed this compromise in Artists who carelessly did anything asked
in order to gain footing in the art business. What they thought would be
their big break in the art world turned out only to temporarily satisfy
their ego without any long-term positive results or advancement. It is
easy to see how an Artist could stray from their vision due to the
pressure involved in this highly competitive field. Taking a slow and
steady approach allows your personal growth to develop along with the
increased recognition.
