A painting probably is the most shocking increase in value, from what it costs to make to what you sell it for.

I quite like it to be risky. I'm not ready to sit down in a chair with my name on it yet. I've arrived at that point in the art world where there really is a chair that you sit in.

It's amazing what you can do with an E in A-Level art, a twisted imagination and a chainsaw.

I love color. I feel it inside me. It gives me a buzz.

I think money is important for everyone, because the lack of it is so painful.

For me, art is always a kind of theater. When I started the spot paintings I made them as an endless series. But I was never serious about it being an endless series. It was just an implied endless series. The theater means you just have to make it look good for that moment in the spotlight.

Immortality is really desirable, I guess. In terms of images, anyway.
