Putting our art out there is one of the biggest risks we can take. It's a special kind of vulnerability. It takes guts to be an artist.

About This Quote

Putting your art out there is one of the biggest risks you can take. It’s a special kind of vulnerability that takes guts to be an artist. When you’re sharing your art with the world, you are putting yourself out there completely. You are vulnerable.

You are showing your true self to the world. You’re trusting that someone else will see what you see and connect with it in some way. It takes guts to put yourself out there without knowing how it will be received.

It takes guts to put yourself out there knowing that it might not be liked or accepted by the public.
