be a better artist

i mean really? can you as an artist say “right now i am the best i can be. i will never reach a level of creativity that could apex where i am at this moment” if ever an artist were to say this, or something of the like; he/she would cease to be an artist. now i am not trying to say that delving deeper into your heart and soul to find the TRUTH or the MEANING of IT all is without its merits, i am merely stating that its an ongoing process one that should never be thought of as finite, for art and the pursuit of it, is a treasure unto itself. apart from whatever is gained/lossed
