I don't think people get the pressure of becoming famous and what it does for an artist. W - Sandra Oh - quotes

I don't think people get the pressure of becoming famous and what it does for an artist. What does that for your creative self. And what that can do for your mental health. And I would say, from year two to year six or eight of 'Grey's,' it was extremely difficult and very stressful and traumatic, if I'm being honest.

Sandra Oh

Most of the people in the world do not understand the pressure that an artist has to face in the professional world. You might be a good artist but if you do not do well in the professional world, then you are not an artist. You are just a mere craftsman. The real artists are the ones who do well i... n the professional world. For the real artist, there is no difference between doing well in the professional world and doing well in his art. The only difference is that if he is doing well in his art, he will do well in the professional world. So, the only pressure that an artist faces is to make a living. There is a reason why some of the greatest artists are known to have a few strokes in their hand and that is because they could not take care of themselves. There is no way you can live like that and do art at the same time. You have to make a choice. Do you want to live a normal life or do you want to live your dream? Most people do not know what it is to be an artist. Most people just see it as a form of entertainment. However, for an artist, it is much more than that. It is the life that they live.
