I was at work but my soul wasn't there, my body was there but I wasn't connecting to what I was doing. Eventually I decided to get out of there and do something I believe in.

I started out doing everything on a custom scale and when that started paying the bills I started making more pieces.

The thing is you can be a great designer but you can also be lazy or not understand the other person's preferences or be more concerned about being a star than being good at what you do.

I want to represent the street, not in a negative sense, but in the sense that when I was growing up, that's what I grew up on.

I don't just want to put a price tag on pieces because I can. I don't want put a price tag on pieces that are unreasonable either. Just because people might buy it doesn't mean you won't alienate fans eventually.

Somebody once told me if you're doing what you're supposed to you don't have to force it.
