Quotes by Xzibit

Quotes by Wiz Khalifa

If a man wants to be an artist, he must never look at pictures.

Quotes by Winslow Homer

This making studies and then taking them home to use them is only half right. You get composition, but you lose freshness; you miss the subtle and, to the artist, the finer characteristics of the scene itself.

Quotes by Winslow Homer

I think being an artist, or just being creative, or imaginative, or aware, where I think everybody starts out, and by about the age of 10, that's been pretty effectively whipped out by education.

Quotes by William Klein

For every artist, experience is never complete until it has been reproduced in creative work.

Quotes by William Jay Smith

What is it they want from the man that they didn't get from the work? What do they expect? What is there left when he's done with his work, what's any artist but the dregs of his work, the human shambles that follows it around?

Quotes by William Gaddis

It is the artist's function not to copy but to synthesise: to eliminate from that gross confusion of actuality which is his raw material whatever is accidental, idle, irrelevant, and select for perpetuation that only which is appropriate and immortal.

Quotes by William Ernest Henley

I wear a lot of different hats - from writer to producer and artist. We all do 5 or 6 jobs, everything from creating our own graphic design to actually recording and the whole bit.

Quotes by William Bell

An artist is forced by others to paint out of his own free will.

Quotes by Willem de Kooning

Whatever an artist's personal feelings are, as soon as an artist fills a certain area on the canvas or circumscribes it, he becomes historical. He acts from or upon other artists.

Quotes by Wassily Kandinsky

The artist must train not only his eye but also his soul.

Quotes by Wassily Kandinsky

The mere drawing and painting world of the pattern designer and the applied artist must become a world that builds again.

Architects, sculptors painters, we all must return to the crafts! For art is not a 'profession.' There is no essential difference between the artist and the craftsman. The artist is an exalted craftsman.

Quotes by Walter Gropius

Proficiency in a craft is essential to every artist. Therein lies the prime source of creative imagination. Let us then create a new guild of craftsmen without the class distinctions that raise an arrogant barrier between craftsman and artist!

Quotes by Walter Gropius

The great artist is the man who most obviously succeeds in turning his pains to advantage, in letting suffering deepens his understanding and sensibility, in growing through his pains.

Quotes by Walter Kaufmann

To the real artist in humanity, what are called bad manners are often the most picturesque and significant of all.

Walt Whitman

Whether he is an artist or not, the photographer is a joyous sensualist, for the simple reason that the eye traffics in feelings, not in thoughts.

Quotes by Walker Evans

You don't necessarily pick the singles that you want when you're making a record, but for the most part it's the same process. You're the artist - you make the music that you want to make.

Quotes by Wale

Of all possible subjects, travel is the most difficult for an artist, as it is the easiest for a journalist.

Quotes by Van Cliburn

You can't be an artist while you're producing, because you'll be over-critiquing the producer part.

Quotes by Valee

The artist deals in what cannot be said in words. The artist whose medium is fiction does this in words. The novelist says in words what cannot be said in words.

Quotes by Ursula K. Le Guin

I talk about the gods, I am an atheist. But I am an artist too, and therefore a liar. Distrust everything I say. I am telling the truth.

Quotes by Ursula K. Le Guin

Quotes by Tulisa

I'm really an artist. I really do this. I don't need the money. It doesn't matter to me.

Quotes by Trippie Redd

For me, one of the jobs of an artist is to try to see changes taking place.

Quotes by Trevor Paglen

I see hip-hop as going in a self-managing place. It's very culturally controlled and artist-controlled. It's not really based on a label anymore. Everything is pretty much in the control of the artist. Which is amazing.

Quotes by Travis Scott

The fact is, when you date an artist, you have to know that they're going to sing about you.

Quotes by Tove Lo

For a while, I was nervous about portraying women because of the objectification that automatically comes with it, whether the artist intends or not.

That's my whole point as an artist - I'm trying to get you to turn a page.

Quotes by Tom King

Quotes by Timbaland

I'm on a mission to make people aware that I'm not a solo artist. I'm sometimes challenged by the branding of Tim Crouch.

Quotes by Tim Crouch

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.

Quotes by Tiger Shroff

I think, probably, being a young artist, there were a lot of things I thought I knew and I wanted to do, and I was like, 'Oh! That's what I want to do.' And then it took me in a different direction with 'I Think We're Alone Now,' and then all of a sudden, I was a pop star.

Quotes by Tiffany Darwish

Neymar is my key player. One of the world's best. He is also an artist.

Quotes by Thomas Tuchel

Quotes by Thomas Rhett

I think every artist needs a rule that's stupid but that helps him, like a deadline would.

Quotes by Thomas Mars

Frost is the greatest artist in our clime - he paints in nature and describes in rime.

Quotes by Thomas Hood

I've decided to do what I want to do in life and follow my own path as an artist, so I've decided not to participate in any sort of nostalgia in which I'm marginalized as a pop icon of yesteryear.

Quotes by Thomas F. Wilson

The big artist keeps an eye on nature and steals her tools.

Quotes by Thomas Eakins

Any man who does not have his inner world to translate is not an artist.

Quotes by Theophile Gautier

Quotes by Theodore Bikel

As an independent artist, you're always figuring out how you're going to fund your next album.

Quotes by Tess Henley

A critic is not a creative artist, is a commenter, a midwife of creativity, but not creative himself.

Quotes by Terry Teachout

I think I've grown a lot in the last few years, and I needed to express myself as an artist on this. It wasn't necessarily about going in and making an album chocked full of hit singles... there were a lot of things I did out of the joy and the want to do it.

Quotes by Terri Clark

I'm an artist, I'm not an academic folklorist.

Quotes by Terri Windling

Quotes by Terry Crews

Luxury is the wolf at the door and its fangs are the vanities and conceits germinated by success. When an artist learns this, he knows where the danger is.

Quotes by Teena Marie

I am not a genre-based artist.

Quotes by Tash Sultana

I don't have specific music for when I'm writing. I'm usually listening to the same playlist or 'artist' before I arrive at the computer as when I'm walking somewhere after leaving the computer.
