Nude Abstract art and Your Win

FAILURE, like beauty, is pretty much in the eye of the beholder. For someone who spends their working life in nude arts, where all results are contestable and the judge's decision never final, one of the joys of following soccer is that you can tell without doubt who kicked the most points and therefore who won or lost the game that weekend. But does a loss equate to failure? I don't think so, and I think this view is shared by a broad public in nude wall arts.

There are all sorts of good reasons why a team may not win a game. A team coming out of years of success, losing some of its veteran stars and building a new list, may be on a losing streak, but only the shallowest of fans will call this "failure".

We can also look at science. Where would we be at the frontiers of scientific investigation and experiment without researchers who refuse to give up when they don't get the result they wanted — in the first experiment or the 51st, or after decades of disappointment?

Why should we view the nude arts in any other way? In all these instances (sport, science and art), risk is essential for the ongoing potential and good health of the field. You have to take risks, roll the dice of the Nude Wall Art World.

Inherent in the nature of risk is the likelihood that you won't get the result you want first up, try painting an exotic art piece for canvas. But a belief in your general direction, a calm confidence you can improve next time, and the counsel of those whose constructive analysis you trust, will not stop you from following your passion in the field of beautiful nude art.

There are many obstacles for those at the creative edge. First of all, funding for research has shrunk dangerously. The arts as much as science need resources for activity that may have no results. Bright minds need the space and time to develop theories and concepts as well as to conduct practical experiments.

For some time there has been a pressure in most fields for "results", which can crush the intellectual freedom, practical energy and confidence required for genuine experiment. If a scientist or artist is really at the frontier of research and experiment, then by definition, their work will often challenge the status quo. The work will be unfamiliar, sometimes uncomfortable, almost certainly unpopular or at least without a large Wall Art following, and frequently a bit tatty around the edges. This in turn leads to adverse public appraisal, for instance, in mainstream media.

For that matter, is it not the mind that judges the nude artistic creation that beholds ones eye...
