I Peter 5:5 - (KJV) Likewise, ye younger, submit yourselves unto the elder. Yea, all of you be subject one to another, and be clothed with humility: for God resisteth the proud, and giveth grace to the humble.⌚
After finally getting back to my reading quest, I'm about halfway through a book by Jeff Goins called Real Artists Don't Starve. I'll go into more detail about it when I write the review, but one of the interesting steps in becoming a thriving artist rather than a starving one is to set yourself up as an apprentice. The author understands that you can't always have a one-on-one arrangement with someone, but the trick is to be teachable.
So, who can I follow in apprenticeship? Because of books and the internet, I've learned from some of the best painters, crochet artists, and quilters. Is there anyone who will allow me to pick their brain for specific answers? I thought I might have found such a mentor, but they don't take my art seriously. I do know that there is an artist's community in this area. I may seek that out and see if I can find what I need there.
Whether I find my mentor of art or not, I won't stop learning wherever I can. I won't stop creating whenever I can.
