In my art, I deconstruct and then I reconstruct, so visual perception is one of my primary interests.

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

The camera is objective. When it records a face it can't make any hierarchical decisions about a nose being more important than a cheek. The camera is not aware of what it is looking at. It just gets it all down.

You know, the way art history is taught, often there's nothing that tells you why the painting is great. The description of a lousy painting and the description of a great painting will very much sound the same.

Most people are good at too many things. And when you say someone is focused, more often than not what you actually mean is they're very narrow.

All the fingerprint paintings are done without a grid.

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.
