On the 'Blacks & Browns' record, it's me and Sad Boy. He's a Hispanic artist, and we're talking about what we got going on with our peoples.
As I grew older, I realised that Bruce Lee was an actor first and a martial artist second. If he wasn't a convincing actor and didn't have the emotion in his eyes before delivering a kick or a punch, it wouldn't have made that much of an impact.
Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.
A lot of my building blocks - who I am kind of as an artist - all came from being in L.A.
An artist may have burdens the ordinary citizen doesn't know, but the ordinary citizen has burdens that many artists never even touch.
I'm no longer an artist, I'm a business partner.
My business partner and make-up artist Kim Jacob and I have employed every member of staff, decided where every desk in the office should go, tried every product on our faces.
I was forced to be an artist and a CEO from the beginning, so I was forced to be like a businessman because when I was trying to get a record deal, it was so hard to get a record deal on my own that it was either give up or create my own company.
I'm not an artist: I'm a businesswoman. Well, maybe an artist/businesswoman.
I like Dali and Magritte. I also like the Scottish artist John Byrne, another surrealist.
I worked as an artist, played in a band, met Andy Warhol, Christo, Lou Reed, and David Byrne. I had fun.
I have a lot of tattoos. My first tattoo I had when I was a teenager was just a little heart. I am very friendly with a great artist, Scott Campbell, and I started going to him to get tattoos. I'm very spontaneous about what I get.
A solution built by an artist serves the artist more than the solution the capitalist comes up with.
It's such a changing industry, and I realize that it's become more digital- and singles-driven, but I still love listening to a full record. It's the artist's story captured in 12 or 15 songs.
I wanted to become a cartoon artist, a portrait artist, and an illustrator. This was my first idea.
The marble not yet carved can hold the form of every thought the greatest artist has.
I'm a catalogue artist: I compete with Bob Dylan.
I love Emma Watson's makeup a lot. I love Cate Blanchett. I'm biased, though. I love my makeup artist, Julie Harris; she is really phenomenal, but everyone has their technique, and there are incredible-looking girls out there.
I want to be an artist you cannot categorize at all. You can't put a box around me. You can't put anything around me.
I don't think an artist should keep themselves categorized in a specific box.
