Do you think attending art school is the only way to become a successful artist? Think again!

One of the biggest mistakes I’ve seen aspiring artists make is believing they need formal education to succeed. As a result, they often feel discouraged if they can't attend art school. If this sounds like you, keep reading.

If you’ve been thinking you need formal education, it makes sense because society often values traditional education. But the real question you have to ask is, "What truly makes an artist successful?"

What successful self-taught artists know is that passion, dedication, and continuous learning are key. When you embrace self-directed learning and practice consistently, you begin to develop your unique style and voice, and the more you do that, the more your art flourishes.

So if you really want to succeed and grow as an artist, you have a choice. Will you cling to the myth, or will you take charge of your own artistic journey? 🌟

Art is simply going within and expressing that which is in each of us

Definitely not! You can become successful at anything without needing to go to school, but it sure is helpful to reach a larger relationship with people with the same interests. Think of it as a community. With enough books you read and enough practice, you can definitely create great art.
