The Crucial Question That Could Save Your Art Career (Part 2‪)‬ You're A Better Artist Than You Think

In part one of this series, I posed a mostly rhetorical question:
Are professional artists (whether aspiring or experienced) foolish to believe that their work could be both financially sustainable and creatively fulfilling?
Then we observed a struggle between these two extremes in the early life and work of Mary Blair, a genius of color and design who became one of the most influential artists in the history of Disney animation.
…but before that, she quit.
…after just fourteen months at the studio.
…and then abruptly changed her mind.
Today we’ll learn that, after her return to Disney, Mary Blair discovered, in effect, one crucial question that led to an elevated role in which she soon found the work to be both financially sustainable and creatively fulfilling.
…a crucial question that led her transformation from versatile mimic into the marquee artist of Cinderella, Alice In Wonderland, Peter Pan and the animatronic wonder It’s A Small World.
…a crucial question that every professional artist (aspiring or experienced) would be wise to apply.
