Quote

But in the old days, visual artists used to fall into two distinct categories: those of us who created images with cameras and those of us who applied stuff onto other stuff, with brushes or other tools.

The time I save setting up and cleaning up probably balances out by the time I spend on output.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
Image
I work closely with the printer to get the final print the way I want it.

People sometimes ask me, because of the blacklisting, Do you hate the government? Don't you hate white people? No, it's greed that's the problem.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
Image
What can government do? They can listen to their own people. But I'll tell you what citizens can do, when we elect one of these people - whether we think it's a good guy or a bozo - you got to stay on the case. You don't vote and go home and give them the keys to the car, he'll drive you right off a cliff. You have to help people to stay honest.

Another time factor is output: proofing and printing. That is, getting your work out of the computer and onto paper and having it satisfy you. It can be time consuming and expensive.
Buffy Sainte-Marie
Image
I had no reason to want to copy anybody else. What I wanted to give audiences for the few minutes that I thought my career would last was something unique.

I had a teacher's degree and a degree in Oriental Philosophy from the University of Massachusetts. I thought I was going to India to study but all of a sudden, I had a career in music. It really surprised me.

Music has been my playmate, my lover, and my crying towel.

All kids, I think, are creative, but they get it pounded out of them in school.

Image
Take a bunch of little kids to the beach and they all make art. Adults are too stupid to call it art, but it is art. They'll use their imaginations, make drama, make up characters, make pictures in the sand, they'll make up songs that no one's ever heard before. All kids, I think, are creative, but they get it pounded out of them in school.

I was playing with sound like I would have played with pots and pans as a kid.

I feel sorry for people of good heart who have never had a chance to learn the realities of Native American everything - not just our history but the sweetness and the beauty and the reasons why were so close to Mother Earth.

Digital imaging allows both groups to rise above the limitations of mess and clutter and mechanics, and apply our talents to creating images limited only by our imaginations.

All the lights on Broadway don't amount to an acre of green.

As a teenager I started painting and playing guitar.

Some of my songs are like dreams, and when you go to sleep at night you don't know if you're gonna have a dream or what you're gonna dream about.

The artistic process in digital art is very much the same as for making other kinds of paintings.
