Yoko Ono "advice for a young artist"
fuckyeahyokoono: Question: if you could give one single advice for a wannabe young artist like myself, what would that be? Yoko: Trust in yourself no matter what people say. The other side of the coin is, don’t trust them no matter what compliment they give you. Only trust in your instinct about the work. (Yoko QandA Day)
