Additional quotes by Jerry Saltz

For now, make something, learn something, and move on. Or you’ll be buried waist-deep in the big muddy of perfectionism.

You are always learning. At the end of each day, you know something you didn't know at the beginning. We're all learning on the job. This is true even when the thing you've learned is that you know less than you thought.

Every work of art is a culturescape of you, your memories, the moments you spent working, your hopes, energies, and neuroses, the times you live in, and your ambitions. Of the things that are engaging, mysterious, meaningful, resistant over time.

All art is a kind of exorcism. This is what gives art its power to change the conditions of our life. - Jerry Saltz
