As an artist, I gotta stand up to my own work.

When I paint a picture of a house, that goes back to my roots.

My pictures are not that interesting, nor the subject matter. They are simply a collection of facts; my book is more like a collection of Ready-mades.

I just use [the camera]. I just pick it up like an axe when I've got to chop down a tree. I pick up a camera and go out and shoot the pictures I have to shoot.

I was attracted to the concept of Hollywood and the lifestyle here. But I've grown to mistrust it because it has changed. I didn't bargain for digital access parking in some concrete structure. Real heaven for me was to drive somewhere and park right in front. Now the city is going vertical.

Good art should elicit a response of 'Huh? Wow!' as opposed to ‘Wow! Huh?'

The difference between psychedelia and digitalia ages will seem like a smooth blending in years to come and will be a mere blip on the screen.
