“Artists are one the final holdouts. Virtually every profession is being driven towards commodification. And corporations, with their profit-driven standardization, building consensus, obfuscation, and aversion to risk, are the ENEMY of art.” CreativityAuthenticityArt WorldArtistic IntegrityArtistic FreedomArtistic VoiceCorporatization Book:Art from Your Core: A Holistic Guide to Visual Voice Source: Art from Your Core: A Holistic Guide to Visual Voice
“We are a sum of our unique, individual life experiences. The trials we have faced, the causes we fight for, the fears that haunt us, the oddities of our minds; all of these and more become the food for our spirit. The universe does not need repetition from the past; another pretty, but pointless reclining nude, sunlit but stale impressionist landscape, or old and cold minimalist cube. It needs YOU. It needs you to strip away all that clouds your genuine sense of self. It needs you to unearth and unabashedly OWN your messy honest, and magnificent truth. And it needs you to deepen and shape that truth into an authentic core, one that will nourish you and your work for a lifetime.” CreativityExpressionAuthenticityOriginalityClichésOriginal ArtArtistic VoiceArtistic StyleArtistic Development Book:Art from Your Core: A Holistic Guide to Visual Voice Source: Art from Your Core: A Holistic Guide to Visual Voice
