"Follow your Love.
Know what you are good at.
Get help with what you are not good at.
Make decisions that allow you to make work for the rest of your life.
Create an art family.
Be generous.
Help each other.
Give back.
Fantasize about the viewer.
Know yourself.
Challenge yourself.
Don’t be too narrow at the beginning."
"And then I wrote down a few other things:
Don’t get too good at making something.
Work at the edge of your capability.
Take a position.
Make rules and them break them, slowly.
Question every gesture in the making
Surprise yourself.
Pay attention
Stay open."
This was one of the best interviews I've every read: http://www.artistcareerguide.com/interview.php?id=42
it's like she just let me in on the secret.
