“Creativity and expression of one’s art can only be measured by the audience to whom it was intended for. Not everyone is going to like my “art” and I don’t really care about that.”
“Only someone who doesn’t understand art tells an artist their art somehow failed. How the fuck can art fail? Art can’t be graded, because it’s going to mean something different to everyone. You can’t apply a mathematical absolute to art because there is no one formula for self-expression.”
“It is the supreme art of the teacher to awaken joy in creative expression and knowledge.”
“I'm beginning to see that there's a difference between art that trusts beauty's simple power to point people to God and Christian art that's consciously propagandistic. My Uncle Kenny, with whom I spent most of my time in Italy, said something profound--that you can make art about the Light, or you can make art that shows what the Light reveals about the world.”
“There are no Rules in Art . . .Only Creativity”
“Art is an expression of joy and awe. It is not an attempt to share one's virtues and accomplishments with the audience, but an act of selfless spirit.”
