I'm always looking for relations between my work and the old masters.

I was always - I was a movie nut. I lived in the movies, really.

Any artwork is part of something larger, grander and, you know, the situation that it's in is very important.

Words have very potent meanings and people read them and they react to them personally. They are very suggestive in terms of your life and things like that.

I like a lot of good European films, good - anything really. I'm a big fan of Netflix and I get films from them all the time. If I hear about something that I don't know, that I haven't seen, forgot about, I immediately jot it down and add it to my Netflix list or if there's a film that's available that I haven't seen for many years, I get that.

I'm fortunate in one respect; that I don't have a lot of work in my studio. Most of it's out, gone; either sold or in galleries. I work with a lot of galleries.

And yes, there are things I want to keep, that I like around me - especially when there's very little left. I just want to keep those little bits of reminders of my past. There are certain drawings from the '60s; certain little paintings from the '60s that I keep.
