Artists are often subject to the markers of success defined by the commercial world. However, viewing your own artistic endeavours through the eyes and opinions of others can result in you becoming so fearful of judgement that you give up and take the easy route which is less painful.
Learn to become more confident in your own opinions and value the work that you do. Taking the next step is a step that is right for you and not based on what others think the next step should be. Work according to your own artistic standards and be proud of the work that your do.
- Set your own artistic agenda
- Work within a time frame that suits you
- Develop your own artistic individuality
- Assess your work on its own merit
- Be proud of your work
Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of somebody else.
~ Judy Garland
