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

I don't think irony is about judgment; I think irony is something like, "Oh, that's interesting," because it's not something I think one starts off to achieve. I think it's just something that presents itself. And if it does, I find it's usually optimistic, not negative in its terms.

I always liked Disney films. To this day I think 'Bambi' is great.

Art to me is a humanitarian act and I believe that there is a responsibility that art should somehow be able to effect mankind, to make the word a better place.

I like my drawings to be direct. I don't generally work on them for too long, but that doesn't mean that they are not works in their own right.

I spend much more time looking at art history and at different references to art than I do at actual objects.

I'm really not a person who consumes a lot. I don't have a sports car.
