Getting serious

4th year into my artist life, I'm getting serious now. Art is a serious business  that much I have learned.

Once I read about a quote from an artist, "Respect each and every stroke (on canvas)." Now it means more to me, not just respect the work I am creating, but respect art itself. Yes, it's getting serious and I am not joking about it.

Now when I receive a $20 dollar bill for my work in the market, it means more than the value, it means the connection there is between the customer - the viewer of my work and me - the creator of the work. And you know what? That is huge. Yes. It is huge to me.

It's a serious business being an artist.
