Failure Quotes

मैंने ब्लॉगिंग इसलिए शुरू की क्योंकि मुझे खुद नहीं पता था कि मैं एक आर्टिस्ट बनना चाहता हूँ या नहीं। मैं ऑनलाइन ऐसे लोगों से बात करना चाहता था जो कला के क्षेत्र में काम कर रहे थे, इसलिए मैं अपना काम पोस्ट करता था और लोगों की राय मांगता था। मुझे बहुत अच्छा लगता था जब जेम्स जीन जैसे कलाकार अपने काम करने की प्रक्रिया को अपने ब्लॉग पर साझा करते थे। यह एक ऐसा खुला संवाद बन गया था जिसकी ललित कला (फाइन आर्ट) की दुनिया में आज बहुत कमी है। लोग कहते हैं, "अरे, तुम बहुत कुछ शेयर करते हो।" मैं कहता हूँ, "नहीं, मैं जानबूझकर ऐसा करता हूँ।" इंस्टाग्राम लोगों के लिए अपनी असफलताओं को साझा करने का एक बेहतरीन मंच है। मैं नहीं चाहता कि लोग यह सोचें कि एक कलाकार की ज़िंदगी बहुत चकाचौंध से भरी होती है।

I started blogging because I didn't know if I wanted to be an artist. I wanted to talk to other people online who were doing art, so I would post work and ask for feedback. I loved that an artist like James Jean would show his process on his blog. It became this open dialogue that, unfortunately, we don't have a lot in the fine-art world. People will say, "Wow, you share a lot." I'm like, "No, I make it a point to." Instagram is a great place for people to share failure. I don't want people to think that being an artist is some glamorous life.
