The reason I'm painting this way is that I want to be a machine, and I feel that whatever I do and do machine-like is what I want to do.

Don't think about making art, just get it done. Let everyone else decide if it's good or bad, whether they love it or hate it. While they are deciding, make even more art.

You have to do stuff that average people don't understand because those are the only good things.

You should always have a product that has nothing to do with who you are or what people think about you... so that you never start thinking that your product is you, or your fame or your aura.

My idea of a good picture is one that's in focus and of a famous person.

And your own life while it's happening to you never has any atmosphere until it's a memory.

Business art is the step that comes after Art. I started as a commercial artist, and I want to finish as a business artist.
