JONATHAN TALBOT: QUOTES

"My artistic process is informed by my experience as a parent and grandparent. Rather than attempt to predetermine the direction or final form of my works, I nurture them and help them become what they wish to become. When things go well, the works take on lives and personalities of their own and I learn from them."
– Jonathan Talbot, 2019.

"Life is a do-it-yourself project. You can't hire anyone to do it for you. When you don't have the tools you need, it’s up to you to get them. When you don’t have the skills you need, it’s up to you to learn them. When you encounter obstacles, it’s up to you to overcome them. And when you need help, it’s up to you to ask for it. If you do these things, and if you celebrate both your own skills and the skills of others, then your life will be an authentic part of the world-wide do-it-ourselves project called civilization."

– Jonathan Talbot, 2013.

"The creative process is a joyful struggle which yields great satisfaction."
– Jonathan Talbot as interviewed by Nita Leland, 2003

"Technical innovation is a compass I have used to find a path through the tangled jungle of tradition."
– Jonathan Talbot, date unknown

"If thy computer be not thy servant, it will be thy master."
– Jonathan Talbot, date unknown (with thanks to Sir Francis Bacon, 1561-1626).
