Become a successful Artist.

I was asked by an Artist if I could tell them how to be successful and what it would take, so I condensed it down to this, I said, “Honestly it is easy to tell you how to do it but hard for you to do.”

Paint, draw, create and innovate constantly.. you will need to eat, breath and live your Art. Unless you are constantly creating and pushing yourself to come up with new original ideas and work, you will slip into bad habits that are easy to do and repeat and we love easy and repeating, challenging and being uncomfortable is not for all, only for the few.

Be inspired by others but do not repeat them or copy them.

You are an Artist not a factory worker.

Patience…. this will take time, years.

Learn about basic accounting…. so you know where the money goes.

Budget and save…... So you get to keep some of the money.

Change….. You will need you work hard on your own self improvement.

Nothing will change unless you change first.

Work hard. Always work when you are working.

Finally you are far more creative, innovative and capable than you think, so you will really need to push yourself hard to get the best out of you.

Go and make Artistic success a reality.
