More quotes by St. Lucia
[I] was always my dream to attend the Art Institute. I have always had this zeal to become the best that I can be and I saw that this institution will act as an avenue to me achieving that goal. I applied to the institution and got accepted based on my impressive portfolio.

World music evokes a feeling. You don't have to think about the scene that it comes from.
St. Lucia
Many of my students learn different techniques online and I have learnt a lot using this medium. Art is picking up in the Caribbean but it's unfortunate that we still have people looking down on it. Many persons who don't know better think that having a career in art is a waste of time. I guess the public just needs to be educated some more.

Music has always moved me really deeply, and it's always been more about that than about the desire to rebel or annoy people (although, I've had my moments of that as well). I think it was just years of maybe moving slightly away from it but always coming back to it as the thing that I'm best at.
St. Lucia
I had this perfect situation where my studio was a three-minute walk away, and every day I would go to the studio. If I had an idea, I could work on it at the highest level possible.

My family still lives over there [ in South Africa] .I miss them terribly. I would say that most of my life over there was probably very similar to the sort of life someone would experience growing up somewhere like Australia or in the US.

From as long as I can remember, I was always fond of drawing.
St. Lucia
I've been making music for as long as I can remember. I would, as a kid, just sing little ideas or be making something.
St. Lucia
None of my songs are written 'about' someone or something, they all just sort of tumble out unannounced, like the worst kind of house guest.
St. Lucia
I think it's important to just be in your subconscious mind - at least when you're starting an idea.
St. Lucia
[My mother] was the one who encouraged me constantly and always reminded me that God gave me a talent and I have to use it. I should not keep it locked inside.
St. Lucia
When I'm writing, those ideas are seldom inspired by music itself. I won't often listen to an artist and come up with an idea.
St. Lucia
We should not let negative influences get to us.
St. Lucia
I believe that people have to be sensitized more about the many jobs an individual can branch out to after studying an art form.
St. Lucia
A true artist is practically married to his or her art form so I just couldn't turn my back on it.
St. Lucia
A lot of the people I was writing with think a lot more about lyrics and a lot more about the details from the beginning. That kind of thinking made me a little self-conscious because I was suddenly having to judge what I was doing early on in the process.
St. Lucia
For now ACID Kreationz has only one body and that's me. I have intentions of hiring persons when I am through with university. For now it is only me but off and on I contract sound producers and other persons when the need arises.
St. Lucia
I am really enjoying media arts and digital painting.

When I was 10 I went to the Drakensberg Boys Choir School, which is this idyllic Harry Potter-esque music boarding school in the mountains in South Africa, and that's when everything started to change for me and I realised that music is my thing.
St. Lucia
A lot of my ideas come from McNally Jackson bookstore. One of my favorite things to do is just go there and look through architecture books and interior design books. Something about the aesthetics of space and beautiful images works with my brain.
