When I think of my own art (painting, photography, knitting, writing), I find that it brings me personal satisfaction, regardless of whether or not I decide to share it with someone else. If I decide to share it, and if someone else likes it, or if by chance many others like it, then it might have the potential for bringing financial gain. But in the end, that all depends on supply and demand in this sense...there must be a demand for what I supply (my art). If there is not a demand for what I create, for who I am, then creating for myself is enough. If people have the desire for what you create, they will spend the money. But what you put forth must be real, honest and genuinely your own. I think the best art comes from one’s own inner self without concern at how it will be received.
