Being true to oneself more often leads one toward success rather than away from it.

The theme, or harmony, of a painting can be created by any one of its visual elements. A single colour... repetition of shapes... Light can be a theme.

Being true to oneself more often leads one toward success rather than away from it.

Realistically there is no limit to the possibilities. How does an artist make decisions?

That a viewer does not see what the artist intended does not make the composition a failure... In reality all artists speak first to themselves and then to an audience.

Artists need not meet any standards to practice their craft... Virtually every other occupation requires some sort of license, union membership or something that says you are qualified.

The difficult part of the process is the long exploration and discovery of your own soul and living with the results.
