Every artist, in the end, has to teach himself. That means taking responsibility in a way that is often lonely and confusing, but also, ultimately, exhilarating. You see, the kind of artist you become is up to you, not your mentors, or teachers, or drawing classes. Those people and institutions exist to serve you as you learn. But the learning is personal, and is an ongoing and highly demanding struggle within your heart and mind, no matter who you’re with. Remember too that an entire community of people invest themselves in your growth as an artist. So it makes sense to be humble. But again, in the end, if you really want to live your life as an artist, you must follow a lonely path. (Richard Dixon)
