Just received the following email from one of our readers:
Clint,So you inspired me. Thanks for continuing to tell artists that a mailing list and newsletter are important. It took me less than a week to put [my email newsletter] together and I have already sold two paintings from the email ... in less than three days.

Now, go set up your email newsletter and
change the world.
Sincerely,

Just read your article---something about embracing--and chasing the sweet success---whatever---can't find it here to comment. I have been reading your articles when they come in---I enjoy them so much--and find so helpful. There was one comment I wanted to make on the aformentioned article---you said to practice being better everyday. And then remember that other group of articles that came out (few months back?) about how an artist should be consistant---not change their art because, well, you know the rest. And it was controversial. I, as an artist, trying to be the best artist I can be (and who will put my work on your sight when my new series is finished) always strive to improve---to be as great as Sargent. So how can a true artist stay where they are at? They cannot. A true artist---and we have all seen the evolution of the great artists----is constantly changing---constantly improving. Other wise you're a hack. right?
