Casting your art into the universe

The SneakyArt Post by Nishant Jain →

Every now and then I leave drawings behind in public spaces with a little note at the back. It empowers me to cast my work ‘into the universe’ this way, to not feel pressured to sell all the time.

Love this idea — reminds me of old school guerrilla marketing in the real world.

Something to do when I’m sketching out ’n about? Or with my photos ala Polaroids?

Or perhaps postcard-sized stories about people I’ve met across my travels. Maybe do same with camping life?

This guy left a glamorous career as a PhD researcher in neuroscience to pursue his sketching passion full-time. He faced his fears head on and plowed into doing what he loves.

Very inspirational.

He’s gotten enough of a following to publish a book based on where he lives and now has a newsletter with 14,000+ subscribers.
