I will be smug and admit I feel no competition from anyone artistically. I have seen what is hanging in New York and it's a joke. What isn't a joke, however, is these working artist's ability to convince millionaires that their hackneyed, depthless, talentless art is good. I know that's catty but it's true. It just goes to show you it isn't so much about product, but how well you sell that product. I am keenly aware of the self-esteem I must hone in myself in order to market "my product". Because I am my own spokesperson. And in 21st century America, it takes a whole lot more than skill to get by. You also have to be charming, adroit, good-looking and fierce. I already have the talent. I just have to bring out the strong personality I'm hiding. I am a fierce human being with all the assets to help me. I will get to where I want to be. I will be the success I know I can be.
