To be a successful artist I think that you have to be obsessive. To spend the ammount of time on a body of work to become establised in the art world requires obsession.
A good example of this obsession in practice is the work of Yayoi Kusama, she has always been obsessed with repeating patterns and especially the use of dots which can be seen throughout her work. This obsession spans across painting, sculpture, fashion and print.
Within my work there are certain themes and images I constantly refer back to and cant seem to remove from my work but I cannot be seen to obsess over my work. I feel i have too much going on to obsess over my work but hope I can soon be as dedicated to the themes that matter to me as Yayoi Kusama.
