You know, for a long time I have been of the opinion that artists don't necessarily know what they're doing. You don't necessarily know what kind of universal concept you're tapping into.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Most artists don't understand what they do, and I don't think we have to. Other people do that better - they understand what I do better than I do!
So many artists try to be something that they're not.
Artists shouldn't deal with business stuff; that's not what we're trained in, and most of us aren't good at it.
I think artists are driven by the engine of their own talent, but it's a question of what use they put it to.
I don't think an artist should always know why they gravitate toward something or someone. You are just drawn to things, and that's OK.
Artists are like everybody else.
Most artists, you know, you spend their entire lives learning how to play music and write songs, and they don't really know how the music business works.
I think each artist lives with purpose. A strong sense of purpose. We know who's come before us.
Artists can do whatever they want!
Any artist that's involved in their work is inevitably going to have a focus in what they do.
