Every work of art belongs to his time. I would not paint again the Mona Lisa in the third dimension.

I don't think money can help you become a better painter, for sure. You can have all the studios you want; it won't help you make a better painting.

I'm not going to stop painting just to take orders.

I hope to actually get back to painting someday... soon. I sort of transitioned into cartooning from painting.

I want to die painting.

Every good picture leaves the painter eager to start again, unsatisfied, inspired by the rich mine in which he is working, hoping for more energy, more vitality, more time - condemned to painting for life.

As soon as I can afford a studio space, I'll paint again.

Painting is a coalescing of experience.

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