Reflections on making Art

"Art has the dubious distinction of being one profession in which you routinely earn more money by teaching it than by doing it... The real danger is that an artist who teaches will eventually dwindle away to something much less : a teacher who formerly made art."

"It's true, most artists don't daydream about making great art - they daydream about having made great art."

"The artists life is frustrating not because the passage is slow, but because he/she imagines it to be fast."
