It's always disappointing when your work is not received as you hope it would be.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A lot of my work is a matter of reacting to surprises in life.
I'm always a bit disappointed when I've finished working on a book.
It is always a challenge to work when people have big expectations. I would much rather feel comfortable working without expectations.
I'm hoping that a lifetime of compromise and disappointment will read as extra depth and layers in my work.
In my line of business, there's no better feeling than having a real nice work that you're really satisfied with.
I see disappointment as something small and aggregate rather than something unified or great. With a little effort, every failure can be turned into something good.
How can you not be affected by disappointments relating to work you love so much?
We have disappointments all the time in the business, and I've lost way more projects than I've booked. I've learned from every opportunity and have been chosen for some really great projects!
Usually, with the work I've done, by the end, I usually feel like it's a failure. It doesn't matter how it's received.
I'm always surprised by things that happen to my work.
