Many people say to me, "I saw [Miral] and it really stayed with me. I woke up the next day and really thought about it, and have been thinking about it for awhile." That was my goal.

It's nice to see your name in print. It's interesting.

I have a completely romantic idea about making paintings, I guess.

I think basically I'm a painter, but I would use anything to make my point.

I think style is a fringe benefit that looks like you made it.

You can't have a good bullfight without a good bull.

I guess I am ruthless too because that's what makes a great artist. But I also respect people, I don't go around stepping on their heads.
