I'm having another nice moment where I think I might be okay with never becoming famous.

I'm looking at an acquaintance's work that went viral on youtube and I can definitely parse why it did, it's very resonant work that has an incredibly appealing flair.

I know I will get to a point where I can confidently make my work have its own flair / effect but I look at my own work and feel confident that I have something special going on right now (that's precious regardless of numeric visibility online). I have a flair right now that's budding so to speak.

becoming popular is more of an effect than it is a cause, you become popular because of doing something great and getting lucky. That being said I want to confidently have a flair without mistaking popularity as what represents my work's value.

Regardless of that I don't think i'd be able to like being known, I guess I just want people to recognize my flair, i'm on the right path.
