It's important for me to see as many colors in the character as possible.

I still paint. I love the joy that color can give to our lives and to our communities. I try to bring something of the artist in me to my politics.

I always try to find something I admire about every character I play.

I use colors to bring fine points of story and character.

I like coming up with new characters. Whether it's revamping an old character no one likes or just coming up with brand-new stuff, that's kind of what excited me as an artist.

I have a lot of real life experience that I can draw on. And I think that shows in the characters that I play because I'm always trying to find somebody - or find characters to play that I can identify with on a personal level or relate to. And I think it makes for a little bit more of an honest portrayal.

I never really thought about what characters I play. I always just wanted different characters.

I still love a lot of the guys who just paint.

I've been really lucky to play sort of a diverse array of characters over my relatively short career, although it feels really long.

I love color. When I paint, I use a lot of color. I love art that has a vibrancy of color and compositions. I adore the Impressionists, and I'm influenced strongly by them as a self-taught artist.
