Response to Lacy

I found this reading to be right dow my alley. I took the reading and had an immediate connection to the idea that the artist is the experiencer. When I create art I do it for myself only. I like to challenge myself. If someone else enjoys it well then good for them. In this world that we live in I have learned to do things for myself. being adopted and from a well off family I have never had to want for anything. I have had things done for me my entire life. Im 21 and in college. Its about time I do things for myself without the consent of others. The entire time I was reading this weeks reading that was all I could think about. I don't think one should concern themselves with what other people think of their art unless they are doing for an individual or a group. Its up to them.
