Artist Michelle J Bowden

Or should we ask are you unique? Of course we are all one offs!

So when you create you are looking at things from your very unique perspective.  Everything you make with your own hands becomes a one off.  This cannot be overstated.

In this world of mass production as an artist you can feel under appreciated.  A single piece can take hours to create from the first germination of a thought right through to the finished product.  Then when completed it can never be done in exactly the same way again, even by you.

ORIGINAL PIECES OF ART ARE UNIQUE.

So we as artists need to clearly state this with pride about our art.  Don’t be worried about who does and doesn’t like your art.  You made it and you thought it was worthwhile to create so someone else out there will to.
