I just feel passionately about a few things and particularly about helping artists get off the ground.

I've learned over the years that you're going to be most successful at the things you're most excited to do. Every artist has a special set of tools. When you really use those tools, and you make yourself feel really good about the product you create, I think you'll find an audience for it. I've been very fortunate in that respect.

Part of your job as an artist is to push yourself and make sure your creative juices are flowing.

I want to show the world that you do have some artists that are ready to go to the next level, and instead of being selfish with their career they'll open up the door to other people. I'm in a position to open up the door to help other people do what I do.

I've tried to help a lot of young artists get started.

As an artist, you have to do what you feel passionate about. It has to be something you can connect with.

I've achieved what every artist wants, which is that some of their work will outlive them.

I've spent my life pursing excellence as an artist, which is what I always wanted to do anyhow.

Artists working for other artists is all about knowing, learning, unlearning, initiating long-term artistic dialogues, making connections, creating covens, and getting temporary shelter from the storm.

I believe artists deserve all the help they can get, so they can focus on being great artists.
