The person you admire was true to himself. You can only truly honour him by being true to yourself.

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.

I greatly admired him as a teacher I didn't teach the same way as Josef Albers at all.

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

Art is more to do with observation than invention.

The identifying personal association with objects, which are not personal, is an important modern experience - our real association, the strands of our feelings about the objects that surround us. It's also because they are so familiar, we don't think of them as important in the world, but actually they are the world. We are living in a very material world.

In the period of '60s to the '90s, British art schools were small, and the number of student was small. The personal contact was great.
