I don't paint. I am a hobbyist photographer, so I relate to the visual arts that way, but I'm not a painter.

I paint people not because of what they are like, not exactly in spite of what they are like, but how they happen to be.

Oh, I paint all the time.

It does not matter how badly you paint so long as you don't paint badly like other people.

I'm not painting myself as a down-home, modest guy.

The more I paint the more I like everything.

You can always draw as well as you know how to. I flatter myself that I feel more than I express on canvas; but I know that is not so.

I love painting so much that nothing else matters.
