Manifesto- Anthony Ryder

1. Be persistent- if you stop trying, you’ll never get there
2. Push yourself- the more often you push yourself the more goals you will obtain what you that was unattainable.
3. Make lists- You’ll forget a lot of ideas, goals, art pieces, etc. If you don’t write them down
4. Constantly build your influences- it allows you to reach new realms and break constructs 
5. Constantly study/ educate yourself-being self-educated allows yourself to push yourself to new extremes. Knowing just the surface of an idea leads to the cliche 
6. Love what you do- If you don’t like what ideas you are making, your work will suffer
7. Don’t “brand” yourself - you like a lot of things! Make them regardless of their content in comparison of your previous work. 
8. Everything is an investment
9. Never stop working- when you are not wanting to do art, do it. When you want to work do it!
10. Art is meant to do something- Not just be a pretty thing on the wall, it’s meant to heal, to burden, to think, to experience.
11. Don’t be afraid of vulnerability- your art is your safe space
