Its been two weeks already since that day when Beth Cavener talked about her work, inspiration, and life, but I'm still coming to think over and over again about what she had said about creating this one master piece. "It will take you to make twenty crappy pieces, forty mediocre, and probably the same forty good ones before that moment when you'll make one master piece." Commenting on this, I would say that there is a great amount of experience speaks for itself, and this experience has been built on making trials and errors, with a lesson learned after each trial and error was made.
There is another side to this, and Beth mentioned it as well. She said, "With every piece made, you always think of it if that's the one." People see the final manifestation of art in each piece of their work. Only professional artists know the way to success. Keep on trying sounds like a bitter truth, rule, and, at the same time a professional advice. I, personally, always see "the one" in every try, however, understanding that there is almost infinite number of tries lies ahead, I have to keep on changing, developing, sophisticating my work. There is always a room for experimentation and discoveries, and I'm not afraid to take my chances to try something else even when I think that I'm at the last stage to be done with my work.
