Morituri:
FWIW, I don't think artists need audiences. 

I've done plenty of things just for the sake of art, for the craftsmanship of it, for the satisfaction of creating something that hasn't existed before.

I rarely bother telling anyone else about it.

brilligtove:
As an artisan (in my domains) I agree: the act of creation is it's own reward. There is another level of ...pleasure? satisfaction? that comes with completing some project of artistic or practial value. I personally find the practical more satisfying, but my daughter and her mother find the artistic ascendent, so I can not claim one is better.

OldGoat:
How many famous artists never found, or more accurately were never found by, their audience until after they had died (sometimes of starvation)?  Getting to make a living  at doing what you love is good fortune indeed, especially for an artist.

Case:
This thread is certainly a very intellectual revenant ...

... we should call it Emiel Regis Rohellec Terzieff-Godefroy

Thrudd:

Ah, English.
Such a versatile, eclectic, yet messy language.
My verbiage skills "I think" are decent when it comes to anything technical since I am able to communicate technical issues with non-specialists in my field, though feedback does help.
Unfortunately I am barely able to tread water when it comes to actual skill with the creative use of language (click to show/hide)  tread water = C level in English all through school
