My life is really a history of observing forms and taking in imagery. I don't mean in a photographic way, I mean in a way of feeling them structurally.

I do not think that obsession is funny or that not being able to stop one's intensity is funny.

My attitude towards drawing is not necessarily about drawing. It's about making the best kind of image I can make, it's about talking as clearly as I can.

More important than having a romance with the object that I'm drawing, is to have a romance with the mark that I am making.

For me, drawing is everything, because it informs everything. It even informs my poetry. It's the way I begin everything.

The figure is still the only thing I have faith in in terms of how much emotion it's charged with and how much subject matter is there.
