If I could make a career out of drawing little girls hiding in corners, I would do really well.

There will be scenes in a movie where people are walking through the park, or through a forest, and you're seeing the flickering leaves around them, and they're walking, but you're also hearing their words. It's an interaction between where they are and what they're saying that's both visual and verbal.

Ideas mostly come from the work itself. Often when I'm drawing, the words will be bouncing around in my head, and when I'm writing, ideas about the drawing happen.

I generally have an idea where I want to go, but I don't know how I'm going to get there.

The morning time is also a time when I look at what I did yesterday. That's often a jumping-off point for today.

I don't want to make myself sound that spontaneous, because I'm not.

I know if I did that [career as painter] all the time I would get tired of it.
