Everybody is always satisfied with what I do.

I don't have a dream project. I don't really think in those terms, to tell you the truth.

I wanted my style to be very recognizable.

I am a very lucky artist in the sense that I have had all my life a lot of opportunities to do what I want to do.

I am always producing work, but there is always a sort of deadline where you have to finish work. I don't do it for a show. In other words, I am not like a fashion designer where I have a, you know - I have to put out the full line or I have to put out the summer line like that.

After I did the drawings of trees combining them with words, I started doing - I did that for a very short time. Then it kind of - that sort of evolved into just showing the branches of a tree coming down into the trunk and then going into the root system. So I showed both the branches and the roots of a tree, which were about equal. There is as much going on under the ground as is going on above the ground, which you can see.

ne thing you have to develop as an artist is a confidence in what you're doing and that you're right about it.
