I was always interested in photography and other forms of art.

I'm extremely interested in art, every form of art, but I'm interested in it when it's good and interested in it when it's interesting.

I grew up going to museums. I was privileged to discover art and artists in a very personal way.

At first, I was only interested in music, but I spent so much time in the clubs and seeing fashions change. So naturally, I developed an interest in it.

I always enjoyed art history because, growing up in California, my exposure was limited, and it was a new experience. To learn the history of art opened up certain things to me, made me see. It intrigued me.

Art is always a search for understanding, and the different levels and frequencies of that search feel completely comfortable and natural to me.

Experience is what you get while looking for something else.

My own interest in art was because of my mother. My father didn't like contemporary art, so he didn't give her large sums to spend. So, she began buying prints and drawings. During my school days, I remember sitting in on many of the early meetings.

Music, architecture and pictures have always been my passions, and all that material wealth has meant for me, is being able to have some of the pictures I liked.

But what does interest me is the notion that if you do a lot of work it means there's a potential for other people to understand that a lot of things are possible with a sustained effort and that the broadening of experiences is possible and I think that's all art can be.
