I'm plagued with indecision in my life. I can't figure out what to order in a restaurant.

Every idea occurs while you are working. If you are sitting around waiting for inspiration, you could sit there forever.

I have a great deal of difficulty recognizing faces, especially if I haven't - if I've just met somebody, it's hopeless.

I think most paintings are a record of the decisions that the artist made. I just perhaps make them a little clearer than some people have.

You don't have to reinvent the wheel every day. Today you will do what you did yesterday, and tomorrow you will do what you did today. Eventually you will get somewhere.

It doesn't upset artists to find out that artists used lenses or mirrors or other aids, but it certainly does upset the art historians.

I wanted to translate from one flat surface to another.In fact, my learning disabilities controlled a lot of things. I don't recognize faces, so I'm sure it's what drove me to portraits in the first place.
