Pubs are, disturbingly, where I hatch most of my best idea-sculptures: possibly it's something to do with the disinhibiting effects of alcohol, or maybe it's just having company to yack at.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A pub can be a magical place.
I like pubs too, but it's hard for me to go and get proper bladdered in the way I used to. I don't want to moan about being recognised but I do get a bit of grief sometimes.
I love pubs and I love pub culture.
I use the term bar-room to represent every means for the sale and traffic in liquor, and I earnestly appeal to the people to put an end to the traffic, no matter under what name or guise it may be carried on.
The cafes bore me; going downstairs is a nuisance. Painting and sleeping - that's all there is.
I don't really have studios. I wander around around people's attics, out in fields, in cellars, anyplace I find that invites me.
Paintings are like a beer, only beer tastes good and it's hard to stop drinking beer.
I don't go to pubs.
Hobbies take place in the cellar and smell of airplane glue.
I don't have to hang around a pub, really, to get an idea. I usually visit it once, get the layout, the atmosphere, the feel of it.
