I'm trying to entice people, and sometimes my information is very hard hitting. So I've always wanted to have a soft approach.

I had no reason to want to copy anybody else. What I wanted to give audiences for the few minutes that I thought my career would last was something unique.

The time I save setting up and cleaning up probably balances out by the time I spend on output.

But in the old days, visual artists used to fall into two distinct categories: those of us who created images with cameras and those of us who applied stuff onto other stuff, with brushes or other tools.

Sixteen million colors in your palette are hard for any artist, especially a beginner, to turn down.

The paintings are transferred from my computer to a disk, and I can hand it to the printer this way; or I can modem the painting to the printer over the phone lines from my house in Hawaii.

The artistic process in digital art is very much the same as for making other kinds of paintings.
