You don't have to be Picasso or Rembrandt to create something. The fun of it, the joy of creating, is way high above anything else to do with the art form.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I thought it would be very nice to become Picasso or Rembrandt, or a van Gogh.
To create a work of art is to create the world.
Pablo Picasso would paint a painting and hang it on the wall, and you would go and see the painting exactly how he wanted it to be made. But if you have an idea for a TV show, for example, you're beholden to studios to produce it and distributors to distribute it.
Picasso was hugely innovative, and, wow, did he have facility, amazing ability, but I don't think he painted a masterpiece.
Picasso, Michelangelo, possibly, might be verging on genius, but I don't think a painter like Rembrandt is a genius.
To be an artist is not a matter of making paintings or objects at all. What we are really dealing with is our state of consciousness and the shape of our perceptions.
I don't believe that art is just for entertainment. I want to create art that is meaningful in some way.
It's true that there are people who live the idea of being an artist, as opposed to the idea of making art.
I don't feel I'm trying to make art. I'm trying to make interesting things. People can relate to that.
You have to be creative. It's the basics. You can't be Picasso unless you know how to draw a real face; then you can turn it upside down.
