I thought the objects we value least because they were ubiquitous were actually the most extraordinary.

It's just that some things more important for this and less important for that, and this is true regardless the style of the art.

When I look at the objects that I draw, it seems to me so obvious about the contemporary world - these are our world.

Often people do not properly value things that they are good at naturally because they find them too easy. That is very problematic.

The internet has extended the possibility of making art to more people, and particularly of enabling it to be seen by others. I am sure the internet is having a profound impact on art, particularly those who have grown up with it, but making good art will remain as difficult (and as easy) as it ever was. Having a lasting impact may become more not less difficult.

I am personally happy for artists to make as much money as they can while they can to carry them through the times when they can't.

In my early work I didn't use much colour. I had no confidence about how I could do this.
