The thing is, people only care about their selfie. I am a fan of artists, and if I have 30 seconds with an artist, I am not going to take a photo just to prove on social media that I was with the artist.

I am a lifelong career artist, which itself is a bit of a miracle. It's really challenging to be a career artist.

And maybe in seeing my joy, you can finish your sentence with, "And I am joyful too."

I am an artist, and I understand the pros and cons of being an artist, and the pressures of being an artist, and how much being an artist can be torture to people around you; you know, you friends and your family and how material you can be, and how it's hard to take criticism and all the things like that.
