Art is a path on which we honour our world. Art may not be the only path, but it is a good path, even though at times a difficult one. As bearers of this honour, we artists do not need to simply render our world as we see it but as we might ourselves redesign it. As artists, one of our privileges is to invent.

While this may seem peculiar, the combo of work and distraction leads to levels of innovation not often generated by structured, focused thinking alone.

You're right, super-realism is back in style.

Art, because it's so easy to do, and yet so difficult to do well, encourages humility in the human soul.

The only bad studio is the unused one.

I always thought signing was an artist's honour and guarantee of authenticity.

God may work in light, but we mortals work in pigment.
