I created my own space, which was called the cave. It was a live/work space in downtown Los Angeles on 7th and Spring. When I lived there it was quite derelict. I got this massive space and half of it was my bedroom and the other half of it was the back room - no [natural] light, all fluorescent lights.

I'm not going to work with a company that uses my artwork, which is precious to me, and not allow me to do certain things.

It takes me a long time to understand my work myself, so I name them in the order that they're created.

I use Instagram as an online gallery to display my work. For me, it's almost more important to exist online than it is in real life.

We live on planet earth, we have the sun, and it's the most beautiful thing, the way the sun dances and the way shadows are cast.

I'm not really a job-type person, where I go do a nine-to-give. I have to be with the work at all times and experiencing it.

The way I view the works, they're more like feelings than anything else.
