My mother was always encouraging about my wanting to be an artist.

I feel, as an artist, I should be able to express who I am and the things I come from, and the places I want to also be.

What people don't understand is that how you are as an artist depends on how you are emotionally.

I owe much to mother. She had an expert's understanding, but also approached art emotionally.

Any 'artist' makes a living by expressing what others can't - because they're unaware of their feelings, they're too afraid to express those feelings, or they lack the skills to communicate and be understood.

Everyone always comes to one point in their life as an artist where you can either let your heart guide you or your ego.

If you're an artist, you're an artist; that's the only way I can explain it.

As an artist, you can never get what you want. What you do never approaches what you want it to be.

My mum is an artist and very into creative expression and freedom.

Being an artist is dragging your innermost feelings out, giving a piece of yourself, no matter in which art form, in which medium.
