I'll talk. You'll listen.

I get the feeling that sometimes the ideas work very well when you're doing them in the studio alone.

What I am really concerned about is what art is supposed to be - and can become.

If I was an artist, and I was in the studio, then whatever I was doing in the studio must be art.

But part of the enjoyment I take in it is finding the most efficient way to do it, which doesn't mean the corrections aren't made. I like to have a feeling of the whole task before I start, even if it changes.

It's just strange to think about...whether I'll be an artist or what I'll be doing.

In the studio, I don't do a lot of work that requires repetitive activity. I spend a lot of time looking and thinking and then try to find the most efficient way to get what I want, whether it's making a drawing or a sculpture, or casting plaster or whatever.
