Elizabeth Murray:
Stay in touch with your original motivation to become an artist—and be aware that it is always a process of becoming. You have to stay light on your feet. It is about change and transformation. You are the boss of that buy you don't have total control. Good to give into that. Making art requires a lot of isolation, but I realized over time that I also wanted a whole life, that I could still do my work and have a partner and a family.
John McCracken:
The only art worth doing is the art that makees things better. More actually advanced. More enjoyable. A key: genuine happiness. All around. So, make art that comes out of your own sense of what's actually best, and advanced, and supercool. Do you live on a planet, or on a mulit-blither of unknown galaxies?
Jessica Stockholder:
In art and in life all of our actions are at once inextricably bound to circumstance and filled with choices we make from a vast and unlimited array of what's possible. The dance between the two poles of circumstance and unlimited possibility is what generates meaning and passion.... You are a person, armed with free will and the tools to discover that will. You can make things that embody your sense of what matters. You can have conviction, passion, and belief.
