Our art is an adventure. It is a dream come true.

I think it takes a lot of trickery to keep up with the media and its perception of you. I don't know if I have it in me most of the time to care. The music is made first, and the interviews or photos to keep it alive come later as a necessary evil, I suppose.

When you know your work sells, then seeking a gallery or outdoor show is fine. Then, if an event or art gallery kicks sand in your face don't give up, keep moving forward. Use your brain and eliminate a lot of your personal agony. There are times when you should not take NO for an answer. But there are others when you should never put yourself in the place to be rejected to begin with. Seek the wisdom to know the difference and then go for it. Persevere in the face of disappointment.

I think the media's the kind of thing where the truth doesn't win, because it's no fun. The truth's no fun.

Promotion and perception are synonymous twins of art marketing.

You need a little resistance-something to fight against.

If what you are doing is working, DON'T change just to be different. Just get better.
