RE: Happy One Year Birthday To Red Dust Art

Great to know you can succeed as an artist and in crypto social network at the same time. I am slowly working my way up with my steem power. Trying to spend more time on creation too. I work in different mediums. More sculptural work, I am learning from artists like you, how to create more value from the pieces. It would be great to be able to do more personal art and pay part of my bills with money made on platforms like this. Thank you for being good role model.

@mitchhunter, I think sharing the struggles and insights in creating artwork is the hook. Many people don't understand how artist create, they think it's like magic or a gift. So showing the struggle, exhaustion, creative highs and lows makes for an interesting read.

I really enjoy video taping my work and speeding it up, putting it to music, I've had a blast with that kind of sharing.

EDIT: I should show videos of my frustration when I rip up pieces that didn't work...hahahah

Yes. Struggle and creative hights and lows would fill many posts, specially when you are self-taught :) I tried to film my process but had difficulty to stay in frame and became more self concious and productivity fall. The process is messy and ugly, i love to see it from other artists because this is the best way to learn. I promise to improve on this. Planning to move soon and setup my new workplace with more pernament ways to film and photograph the process.

If you haven't noticed emotional messes sell ...hahah <3
