Really simple guide for artists

Put out high quality work, consistently

——-

If you work at yourself 

and put your work out there 

And the work is good

Then people will respond to the work. 

—

If you put out work

And the work is good

If the work reflects you

If you practice with dedication

And are determined, 

People will respond

People will take notice 

—- 

If you put out interesting, high quality work, consistently, people take notice

Borges

"A writer—and, I believe, generally all persons—must think that whatever happens to him or her is a resource. All things have been given to us for a purpose, and an artist must feel this more intensely. All that happens to us, including our humiliations, our misfortunes, our embarrassments, all is given to us as raw material, as clay, so that we may shape our art."

Borges
