I create music; I create painting; I create whatever I want to create. I create, what you say, clothes. I create, I don't know, dance move. I create anything.
I suppose an artist takes the elements of his life and rearranges them and then has them perceived by others as though they were the elements of their lives.
Just to be nominated, and especially as a new artist and a female artist, is a feat. Winning anything is just a bonus.
Most modern fantasy just rearranges the furniture in Tolkien's attic.
I think a great artist should be able to create any style, any form, anything from rock to pop to gospel to spiritual, just wonderful music where everybody can sing it.
A true artist could and should create till the day they die. You don't ever fail as an artist until you quit being an artist.
The camera for an artist is just another tool. It is no more mechanical than a violin if you analyze it. Beyond the rudiments, it is up to the artist to create art, not the camera.

When something is just bad, it's often because it is too mediocre in its ambition. The artist hasn't attempted to do anything really outlandish.
I've never really had the desire to be a front person or a solo artist. I don't really create that much of a hierarchy in my mind.
I wasn't really writing with anything commercial in mind I just wanted to create some new music.
Anything you strike, anything you shake or rattle, or just anything that can be picked up, and you can create a sound.
The artist does not really create; he discovers.
I try to create an image to suit my music. These days, you have to create your own personal brand as an artist. It's not about just putting music out any more unfortunately.
The product of the artist has become less important than the fact of the artist. We wish to absorb this person. We wish to devour someone who has experienced the tragic. In our society this person is much more important than anything he might create.
In the beginning I was just a makeup artist and I never really pictured myself doing anything else. But now that I have so many doors open, I kind of want to be that indie rock Paris Hilton - but with actual intelligence - she's just stupid.
