I enjoyed art in school. I've always done little drawings and stuff like that. I don't really know what I'm doing with the painting, but I experiment.

I don't think you can be taught how to make art. You can be coached, but on a fundamental level you have to figure it out for yourself. You have to learn how your own mind works, figure out your own relationship to the art; you essentially have to invent it completely for yourself.

I went to art school, I think it helped me a great deal because it taught me who I am.

Making art, good art, is always a struggle. It can make you happy when you pull it off. There's no better feeling. It's beauteous. But it's always about hard work and inspiration and sweat and good ideas.

If what you want to do is make good art, decide what's good and try to imitate it.

I don't know very many people in the art world, only socialise with the few I like, and have little time to gnaw my nails with anxiety about any criticism I hear about.

Creating art is painful. It takes time, practice, and the courage to stand alone.

I think what I do is borderline art. Most people who do borderline art have to have other jobs, so I'm very grateful.

Art is something that opens up and enhances your emotions and that's what I like to think I'm doing.

I don't feel I'm trying to make art. I'm trying to make interesting things. People can relate to that.
