I think that artworks are like these spiritual objects: I think that they have energies and powers beyond what the eye can see.

Art class was my thing, but not any other class.

Its such a weird self-confidence that an artist has - to conceive of this thing that serves no function and say, Im going to really work hard for it and give it and its just going to matter to people. You really have to believe it all on your own.

Art is kind of the lens through which I think about God.

At the end of the day, you cant have a vision; you have to have a hope. This is where the miracle comes in.

I try very hard to handle things equally: ideas, materials, and images.
