These principles act as a soft manifesto for myself, and for anyone else who wants to be an artist practicing for softer reasons at softer paces in softer spaces:
Can you afford to break down any barriers between your work and the audience? (monetary, language, accessibility, etc.)
What can you gain, that is not money, from the work?
Four steps: choose a field, learn enough to get to the frontier, notice gaps, explore promising ones. This is how practically everyone who's done great work has done it, from painters to physicists.
