Never become an artist if you can't learn to draw.
Once you set out to copy another painter you can never be more than number two.
Art is more than a product of your efforts - it should be about feeling, life, attitude, soul.
The less inhibited you are the better.
Watercolor is like life. Better get it right the first time--you don't get a second chance!
There is no one just like you, and there never will be anyone just like you, so there's no reason not to be original.
