R: Respect

Respect may not seem applicable to art and creativity, but respect is actually very important.

Respect. What is respect and why do we need it in art?

Respect means to value something. To understand that it has some value, whether monetary or emotional.

Why do we need it in art? We need to value all forms of art. Art has both monetary and emotional value to all people. We need to respect other artists' work. Even if it is not our cup of tea, so to speak, we still need to respect it as something that is of great value to that artist. We also need to respect our own art. We need to realize that our own creations have value, too. They have value to us and they even have value to our audience.

Respect is vital in any relationship, including our relationship with art and artists.

Every creation of ours deserves respect from others and from us.

Please don't ever forget that your art deserves respect too!

Hello! Absolutely. Respect for others is important, and we have to respect ourselves and our writing, too.

Respect for anything is important especially for our creations and those of others.
