so then he says to me, "I didnt know it was a church!" Lol, anyway i am having a really hard time and i don't know if i will ever be a successful artist. people say "yeah as long as making the art makes you feel happy and fulfilled, nothing else matters" but i cant be happy and fulfilled if i am not making enouogh money to pay my bills! if i'm making art, success is part of the equation if you catch my drift...i want to be successful in the end. a lot of people get jobs for the growth opportunities, aka so they can become more successful. Why is it such a big deal if i, as an artist, want to grow in popularity? is this the wrong way of looking at it? of course i love art but i'm not just doing it as a little sideshow, for me it's the main show. and this show relies on people showing up, to watch it. i think i have made my point. do i have the wrong outlook on this?
no
