I always knew that I wanted to be an artist.

I knew I was artistic, and I wanted to do something in the arts.

This image of wanting to be an artist - that I would in some way become an artist -was very strong. I knew for a long, long time that that's what I would be. But nothing I ever did seemed to bring me any nearer to the condition of being an artist. And I didn't know how to do it.

I always wanted to be an artist, but I didn't really know how someone could make a life out it.

I just wanted to be an artist. I didn't care how or what; I just wanted to express my artistic integrity, and I wanted the world to have a vision of what I was seeing in my mind.

I always knew would be some sort of artist, but didn't know what.

By the time I was a teenager, I knew I wanted to be an artist. I was a born draftsman and liked all forms of art, so I just knew that's what I wanted to do.

I always knew that I was an artist. I never expected to be able to make a living.

I wanted to become an artist because it meant endless possibilities. Art was a way of reinventing myself.

I always knew I wanted to be a performance artist.
