🗣️ Quotes from Kyla Yager
"The best thing you can do as an ADHD person is just do what you are most passionate about every day, because then you'll never get bored."
"My process is so freaking fun. I just love making what I make. When I finish it, it's just because I've run out of room on the canvas."
"The biggest detriment that you can do to a creative professional career is putting in some work and then stopping because you feel like it's not working."
"I want to be a famous artist, not for the vanity of fame and fortune, but because I want to start a movement and make an impact on the fine art world."
"Collaboration over competition all the way."
