Well you can't teach the poetry, but you can teach the craft.

But slowly I began to use cameras and then think about what it was that was going on. It took me a long time, I mean I actually played with cameras and photography for about 20 years.

I've always been a looker. Loads of people say, "I never saw that" - but that's what artists do.

I actually think the deafness makes you see clearer. If you can't hear, you somehow see.

People criticized me for my photography. They said it's not art.

Smoking calms me down. It's enjoyable. I don't want politicians deciding what is exciting in my life.

I'm interested in all kinds of pictures, however they are made, with cameras, with paint brushes, with computers, with anything.
