I think the problem with the arts in America is how unimportant it seems to be in our educational system.

At the same time that I'm finding the color world I want, I'm also trying to make the imagery, you know, by the nature of the strokes themselves.

It's always a pleasure to talk about someone else's work.

Part of the joy of looking at art is getting in sync in some ways with the decision-making process that the artist used and the record that's embedded in the work.

I only have so much time and energy and money, and I'm going to put it into my work.

Sculpture occupies real space like we do... you walk around it and relate to it almost as another person or another object.

I think women realise that I love women, and very often women seem to love me.
