I wish to share and pass down some of my generation's traits, and encourage young people to create their own art, music, and literature.

My family's lineage is five generations of artists who never made it.

Anybody with artistic ambitions is always trying to reconnect with the way they saw things as a child.

My fan base is really expanding into an inter-generational thing - it's what every artist probably hopes for.

Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up.

My generation, we came along, we had to really know our craft.

Some artists are happy doing the same thing again and again, but my favorite artists are the ones who evolve and grow, and I want to be one of them.

I want to be an artist that everyone can relate to, that's young, happy and fun.

I hope that through my work, artists will take some chances, break some rules, and make art that comes from inside of them. I would like to be remembered as a kind person, a great Mom, and a bit unruly - in a good way!

Everyone in my family is an artist. Both my parents are painters and my mom's an opera singer. I was never shown any other way to process life.
