I love putting paint on canvas, getting lost in the process of painting.

I love film - it's like painting.

I don't want to be a film-maker. I think painting is far more exciting and profound.

Directing is really exciting. In the end, it's more fun to be the painter than the paint.

I really enjoy squeezing out a big lump of paint directly onto the canvas and leaving it; fresh, immediate and sometimes shocking.

Filmmakers are going to make films, just like painters are going to paint.

I never know what I'm going to put on the canvas. The canvas paints itself. I'm just the middleman.

An artist makes a painting, and nobody bugs him or her about it. It's just you and your painting. To me, that's the way it should be with film as well.

For a filmmaker, it's a rare chance to do a personal film on a big canvas.
