The more I got into presenting things to the world, the further it was taking me away from what I was, which was someone who just used to sit quietly at a piano and sing and play. It became very important to me not to lose sight of that.

Believe me, were I ever to accomplish anything, it would be in music, which has always attracted me; and, without overestimating myself, I am conscious of possessing a certain creative faculty.

Sight is something you take for granted until you think you might lose it.

I've trained myself to illuminate the things in my personality that are likable and to hide and protect the things that are less likeable.

I think 'Sightseers' was a bit of an epiphany, a massive learning curve, and it gave me loads of confidence to go out there, and also to create a female character which is completely unexpected and defies convention.

I think this is true for all artists. My senses are very important to me.

They saw me, those reckless seekers of beauty, and in a night I was famous.

I love observing both vocally and by sight. So I take on a lot of those elements of people around me.

I'm very aware and very conscious of the path I chose in life, and very aware of the path I didn't choose.

I always feel the desire to look for the extraordinary in ordinary things; to suggest, not to impose, to leave always a slight touch of mystery in my paintings.
