If you’re waiting to feel “ready” to make art - stop watching. Make shitty art. The kind you almost delete. Find people who see you - not people who get it explained. When someone asks what you do, say it. I make art. No disclaimers. Be picky with feedback. If they’re not creating, they’re projecting. The algorithm has no taste. It rewards noise, not honesty. Art is subjective. There’s no winning. Only choosing to keep going. Define success for yourself or you’ll spend your life chasing someone
