Very touchy topic here I know, but this has bee a strong concept I've seen for many artist, someone told me the other day My ego was a downer, which baffled me and kinda hurt. Because I learned years ago to leave my ego at the back door. That was one concept my dad pushed towards me as not just an artist but as a person. Let's face it our ego will always be with us, it's not hard to put it on the backburner. I'm the kind of person that'll say thank you I'm humbled. not OMG this persons art sucks what a loser I'm better nagnagnag. I encourage learning new things and helping others learn not compete with them. So see why I'm confused about the ego. I am but a humbled poor artist lol, nothing more nothing less, just wanting to help others spread the joy of art with a passion like myself, and if that's setting myself on a pedestal I don't understand your concepts on human nature. anyways personal rant over, what are your thoughts on Ego vs Humble and humility?
