... The Book is more important than your plans for it. You have to go with what works for The Book ~ if your ideas appear hollow or forced when they are put on paper, chop them, erase them, pulverise them and start again. Don't whine when things are not going your way, because they are going the right way for The Book, which is more important. The show must go on, and so must The Book.

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

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

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!

I love the longueurs of a book even if they seem pointless because you can get a peek into the author’s mind, a glimpse of their creative soul.

... 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.

... an artist should paint from the heart, and not always what people expect. Predictability often leads to the dullest work, in my opinion, and we have been bored stiff long enough I think.

Since art is considered a noble field, art should be used to promote all that is good and noble, and in a noble fashion.

While art thrives on the blazing colours of scandal, literature blossoms on the dark soil of tragedy.
