I grew up in Pennsylvania in a small town. Real small, like one high school and one movie theater. Well, there was a state college there, that was the only good thing about it.

Whatever you do, the only secret is to believe in it and satisfy yourself. Don't do it for anyone else.

Children are the bearers of life in its simplest and most joyous form. Children are color-blind and still free of all the complications, greed, and hatred that will slowly be instilled in them through life.

When I grow up I would like to be an artist in France.

I have been enlightened. I have fallen into poetry and it has swallowed me up.

The only way art lives is through the experience of the observer. The reality of art begins with the eyes of the beholder, through imagination, invention and confrontation.

See, when I paint, it is an experience that, at its best, is transcending reality.
