You can’t enjoy art or books in a hurry.

Aren't artists supposed to thrive on the creative struggle, battling the world and expressing it through their masterpieces?

I am an artist you know ... it is my right to be odd.

Weirdism is definitely the cornerstone of many an artist's career.

(The Mona Lisa), that really is the ugliest portrait I’ve seen, the only thing that supposedly makes it famous is the mystery behind it,” Katherine admitted as she remembered her trips to the Louvre and how she shook her head at the poor tourists crowding around to see a jaundiced, eyebrow-less lady that reminded her of tight-lipped Washington on the dollar bill. Surely, they could have chosen a better portrait of the First President for their currency?

She preferred the quiet solitary atmosphere, to create in her own world of paint and colour, the thrill of anticipating how her works would turn out as she eyed the blank sheets of paper or canvas before starting her next masterpiece. How satisfying it was to mess around in paint gear, without having to worry about spills, starch or frills, that was the life!

There has to be a cut-off somewhere between the freedom of expression and a graphically explicit free-for-all.

... if you have the talent and can create, what's stopping you? You're the same creative person whether or not you have a degree in art.

Art reveals the inner psyche of the artist. It takes a certain type of hardiness for a creative person to share their works to the public.
