This is the best award acceptance speech of the year.
“No one becomes an achiever or a star or a legend without the support of teams – both visible and invisible. Some people make your art presentable by polishing it, and there is a fan following that grants you celebrity status.
One can create art with imagination, resources and skill, but an artist is crafted by those who create the platforms for display.
And then, it takes a village to preserve the glory, and not let it be tarnished by opponents. Believe me, it’s the last step that takes a lifetime.”

this was fantastic, Reena! X

That must be my husband because he’s an artist now. He does art and craft too, and maybe he will be a millionaire next year!
