The “Happy Accident” refers to a serendipitous moment artist’s often experience – meaning something happens in their work which they had not expected or planned for. Often these kinds of moments produce some of the most wonderful pieces. However, there is in an argument that these “happy accidents” are not really in the control of the artist – they just happen (hence, serendipity). Do you think Happy Accidents are good things? Do you think the artist should take credit for them? Or do you think the artist should throw away works that do not bare their original intention?
