Reading your book was an experience I cherish! And I love hearing your thoughts on audience. I agree that the act of creating art is its own pleasure, separate yet inextricably tied to the pleasure of having your work seen and understood. It is so hard to break out of the mindset of focusing on the final "product" though!
I always appreciate your thoughts on art-making, Lorna! And you’re so right. Creating and being seen are inextricably linked. It only makes sense, I suppose—everything in life is connected. And both give me a rush—sometimes of panicky fear and sometimes of pure joy and so many other indescribable feelings, too. Thank you for commenting and reading!
