❓Cryptoart Question of the Week ❓

Success in the art world is often measured by fame, gallery shows, or sales, but for many artists, true success lies in creative fulfillment, audience impact, or personal growth.

How do you define success as an artist and how has that definition evolved over time?

I think these days I define success as being able to express a complete idea. Sales are nice, of course, but the fulfillment I'm aiming at is taking an idea about some new thing I want to express and a way of doing it and combining them in the most robust way I can think of.

Someone I met at Manifold - I was telling them DYWTFS was so huge and not even a fraction minted out - and he said that "It doesn't matter - it's a complete expression as a work of art." That stuck with me - the achievement of the expression. It's nice if other people see it and receive the expression, but at least making it complete is achieved.
