Genre: Self Help
Author: Missy Loewe
So, you think that you are the world’s next greatest artist! You may be right. However, if your work is not out there, being seen, being appreciated, then no one will ever know. There are ways to promote your art, creative ways that support your intuitive creative energies. Perhaps you should donate a work to a local charity auction; or, offer to display your work at a local business or restaurant; or, offer classes/workshops to promote your style of creativity. These are just a few ways to make your name. After all, you want people to recognize you for your art. Until you make your art visible, no one will even know that you are an artist, let alone a very talented one. Success as an artist demands that creativity crosses over into the realm of self-promotion. As Aristotle wrote, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit.” It goes without saying, then, that success in what one does requires the habit of promoting what one creates.
