The world would be a better place if more artists felt comfortable being smug.

Smug makes for terrible art and always has done, because smugness almost always leads to complacency and then mediocrity in short order.

Being overly critical of your own work, which many artists are, also can lead to terrible art ala burnout. Far more artists hate on themselves here in the digital age than act smug about it; I see way too many people beating themselves up for not being good enough. Life is too short to over burden oneself with the fear of 'mediocrity', a theme that in itself is too subjective to bring others down with.

Okay, but that doesn't mean you have to be smug either.

I'm gonna be real here, any time I have encountered an artist who came across as smug (as opposed to just, like, confident) I have always instantly disliked that artist and their work. smugness is inherently obnoxious

I wish I knew your name because I want to put this in my quote file and attribute it to the person who deserves the credit.
