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

What an artist is trying to do for people is bring them closer to something, because of course art is about sharing. You wouldn't be an artist unless you wanted to share an experience, a thought.

To be an artist, you need to play inside your work.

That's part of the requirement for me to be an artist is that you're trying to share your personal existence with others and trying to illuminate modern life, trying to understand life.

An artist's duty is rather to stay open-minded and in a state where he can receive information and inspiration. You always have to be ready for that little artistic Epiphany.

Part of being an artist is that you are always concerned you don't have what it takes. It... keeps us honest.

An artist is someone who should raise questions rather than give answers. I have no message.

I make a good living and I've never looked at myself as being an artiste.

There's a power in what we hold as artists, and part of that comes with responsibility... to share the human experience and really allow that to be seen.

An artist's job is simply to take the mirror in front of your face and hold it there. It's not to give you any answers. It is simply to take that mirror and point it at you.
