About "Succes Story"

About entrepreneurship and art market

This painting titled Success Story fueled my curiosity because it is a reflection of Pop Culture and Urban Style art related to current consumerism.

As I was painting, I thought about entrepreneurship. It appealed to me the most when I was looking for inspiration, so I wanted to create art about it. I believe that you have to think like an entrepreneur and devote full time to art and the business behind it 100%.  

Everyone who knows me knows that I love to paint and I love my work. However, social networking and producing website content are a few of a thousand things I have to excel in to be able to have a thriving art career. That is not easy.

One thing I enjoy that stands above the rest is improving my artwork. Examples of what I do to improve are love studying artists' styles, reading art-related books, and learning about the business side of art. In fact, as I was painting this, I was just reading about entrepreneurship and art market.

A contradictory story

Many scrawled drawings within the original acrylic painting tell a contradictory story that is confusing on purpose. The story revolves around a line between artistic creation and the sale of the art. Maybe I'm crazy, but I believe a painting is not finished until it's sold!
