When I can focus on something like guitar or painting, I do. I started painting people I admire, like Kerouac, Bob Dylan, Nelson Algren, Marlon Brando, Patti Smith, my girl, my kids.

Painting is a hobby for me.

Well, one always has an instinct to be a painter, and I've done quite a lot of painting at one time or another, though not with any public success.

I don't paint. I am a hobbyist photographer, so I relate to the visual arts that way, but I'm not a painter.

Part of your job as an artist is to push yourself and make sure your creative juices are flowing.

I paint landscapes, figuratives. I painted all my life. In fact, I started as a commercial artist.

I'm a painter in sound.

I did painting before I did photography.
