My town was even smaller. Only six hundred people. We didn't have a grocery store.

What we are fed through the media I do not accept, unless you see it with your own eyes you cant trust anything.

I think that most art is asking a question or is looking for something, looking for answers and that is what life seems to be about for most people.

I work on words, mostly, toward them being poetry or short stories, and then some of those become songs.

Some people, like Leonard Cohen, write one album every 10 years, and labor over a song for five years at a time.

[I] try to do both because the writing for me, to be a new artist, the writing is gonna pay the bills.

I did photography, painting, and drawing, but I prefer sculpture. I like it because it's very physical.
