Any innovation that is evident in my paintings is a direct result of something that happened in the course of making a print.

There are so many artists that are dyslexic or learning disabled, it's just phenomenal. There's also an unbelievably high proportion of artists who are left-handed, and a high correlation between left-handedness and learning disabilities.

I don't believe in inspiration. Inspiration is for amateurs. Some of the time you know you're cooking, and the rest of the time, you just do it.

If you're overwhelmed by the size of a problem, break it down into smaller pieces.

I'm very learning-disabled, and I think it drove me to what I'm doing.

Like any corporation, I have the benefit of the brainpower of everyone who is working for me. It all ends up being my work, the corporate me, but everyone extends ideas and comes up with suggestions.

Of all the artists who emerged in the '80s, I think perhaps Cindy Sherman is the most important.
