"The real artist's work is a surprise to himself."
American Artist
1865 - 1929
Are you surprised by some of the things that you write or paint? Or do you feel like you are in a rut? As artists and writers we need be willing and open to change. We need to surprise ourselves by what flows from our pens. Sometimes it is too easy to paint the same thing over and over. Or to write the same prose again and again. Picasso was an artist who reinvented his art again and again. He never clung to one style or technique. Some novelists are the same way. No two novels are the same. Where as, genre writers tend to create the same person, the same story over and over. Once they have achieved success they stop growing and changing. Ask yourself this question from time to time: Am I surprised by what I create?
