Abstraction and luxury are the guard dogs of the upper class.

For me, art really starts with acceptance, self trust. Wherever you come to with art, its perfect. You dont have to come with anything. What you bring to something is the art. Thats where its found. Its found within you.

If I try to articulate every little detail in a drawing, it would be like missing the forest for the trees, so it's just about getting the outline of the forest.

When I view the world, I don't think of my own work. I think of my hope that, through art, people can get a sense of the type of invisible fabric that holds us all together, that holds the world together.

Art was something I could do better. It gave me a sense of self.

A lot of my work is about sales. And it was about being independent from the art market.

Art has this ability to allow you to connect back through history in the same way that biology does. I'm always looking for source material.
