Make good art.

Making art is different for everyone.

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.

Creating art is painful. It takes time, practice, and the courage to stand alone.

If you practice an art, be proud of it and make it proud of you It may break your heart, but it will fill your heart before it breaks it; it will make you a person in your own right.

If what you want to do is make good art, decide what's good and try to imitate it.

There is an incredible love in creating art unless somebody is saying, 'Hey, let's just make money,' because it doesn't work when you do it that way. If you are aiming for that, forget it.

Part of my work is dedicated to artisanship and can only be done by very few people because it requires a specific technique. Being an artist is being at the service of yourself; I am at the service of other people.

If you have something you do that's unique, you just end up in situations. Your art can take you to places without you working too hard to force something to happen.
