Rumors sound of galleries asking artists for upsized art and more of it. I've heard of photographers asked to print larger to increase the wall power and salability of their work. Everything winds up set to maximum in order to feed the beast Picture Quote #1

I decided at 15 that I didn’t want to be one of those artists that gets up and sings love songs they don’t mean. I decided that I was going to be me to the fullest extent, that my songs were going to reflect relationships I’ve had, things I’ve been through, and even the stuff I’m embarrassed about Picture Quote #1

Without poets, without artists, men would soon weary of nature’s monotony. The sublime idea men have of the universe would collapse with dizzying speed. The order which we find in nature, and which is only an effect of art, would at once vanish. Everything would break up in chaos. There would be no seasons, no civilization, no thought, no humanity; even life would give way, and the impotent void would reign everywhere Picture Quote #1

Dance is certainly a sport, and they are phenomenal athletes, and they’re also artists Picture Quote #1

I do not deny that I have made drawings and watercolors of an erotic nature. But they are always works of art. Are there no artists who have done erotic pictures? Picture Quote #1

I’ve grown up with country music. I love how real everybody is, not just the artists, but the fans Picture Quote #1

There have been many different artists that have been inspirational. I suppose the question is directed to what was the reason why I went into fantasy illustration Picture Quote #1

I would advise young artists to paint as they can, as long as they can, without being afraid of painting badly Picture Quote #1

It’s usually a big kind of vent of frustration or anger or sadness that puts me in the right frame of mind to write. It’s such a cliche to say that artists write when they’re down, but it’s true for me. It’s a relief to get out what’s eating away at my heart or my soul or my head Picture Quote #1

Bad artists ignore the darkness of human existence. Good artists often get stuck there. Great artists embrace the full catastrophe of our condition and find beyond it an even deeper truth of peace, healing, and redemption Picture Quote #1

Artists are people driven by the tension between the desire to communicate and the desire to hide Picture Quote #1

Cookery is a wholly unselfish art: All good cooks, like all great artists, must have an audience worth cooking for Picture Quote #1

I’ve got a peculiar weakness for criminals and artists. Neither takes life as it is. Any tragic story has to be in conflict with things as they are Picture Quote #1

A musicians or artists responsibility is a simple one, and that is, through your music to tell the truth Picture Quote #1

Theatre artists are essentially sort of charlatans and thieves, I mean that’s the tradition that we come from, so I have absolutely no, I make no bones about the fact that I steal from here and I take from there, and we all do it, that’s perfectly all right, that’s the nothing, there’s nothing new in the world, there’s nothing actually new in the way that you do something, but the point is is how do you take something and use it to articulate what is essentially a core of any given theatrical production Picture Quote #1

If we treat each other as if we are geniuses, poets and artists, we have a better chance of becoming that on stage Picture Quote #1

I want the unobtainable. Other artists paint a bridge, a house, a boat, and that’s the end. They are finished. I want to paint the air which surrounds the bridge, the house, the boat, the beauty of the air in which these objects are located, and that is nothing short of impossible Picture Quote #1

Artists make art. Singers sing. Players play. Gypsies travel. Music lights fires everywhere. It’s like oxygen! Picture Quote #1

I originally wanted to embrace the imagery and forthrightness of rap music. There are some interesting, dynamic voices in rap. But I find most of it irresponsible in its overt violence and commercialization of anger. As artists, we believe we can will action through language. If that’s the case, we have to take responsibility for what we say Picture Quote #1
