Bad artists copy. Good artists steal.
It took me four years to paint like Raphael, but a lifetime to paint like a child.
For being a bad student I was banished to the 'calaboose' - a bare cell with whitewashed walls and a bench to sit on. I liked it there, because I took along a sketch pad and drew incessantly I could have stayed there forever drawing without stopping
When I am finished painting, I paint again for relaxation.
Learn the rules like a pro, so you can break them like an artist.
I do not evolve, I am.
