I've never been a big fan of subtle art. I like art that gets deep into my head and starts my brain spinning with new ideas and inspiration and my whole body is full of energy.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My dark little secret is that I don't actually believe many people in the art world have much feeling for art.
I think there is a hunger for things that wake you up, something that makes you peel back your eyes, that reminds you that you are alive. Art is at its best when it is in the 'now.'
No art is any good unless you can feel how it's put together. By and large it's the eye, the hand and if it's any good, you feel the body. Most of the best stuff seems to be a complete gesture, the totality of the artist's body; you can really lean on it.
I adore art... when I am alone with my notes, my heart pounds and the tears stream from my eyes, and my emotion and my joys are too much to bear.
The finest works of art are precious, among other reasons, because they make it possible for us to know, if only imperfectly and for a little while, what it actually feels like to think subtly and feel nobly.
I always feel like the art's there and I just see it, so it's not really a lot of work.
I feel that all good art is powerful and simple.
Art attracts us only by what it reveals of our most secret self.
Art is the concrete representation of our most subtle feelings.
Being an artist, it's all a journey, and you learn where the subtle patterns lie.
