Having loved the Stones all the time I was growing up, I wasn't about to see them go and split up. It got very close to it in the 80s, when Mick thought that Keith hated him and vice versa.

During the Eighties, when I was hurting for money, I thought, "Hang on a minute - I can paint." I was living in New York and I thought it would get the grocery money coming in, and it escalated from there.

When I get intimate with my paintings, it's a real good spiritual thing to get off my chest. Same as playing the instruments is a great release.

I find it hard to get old and hard to say, 'No.'

I think people are just creative, and this can be expressed in a number of ways. Bob Dylan and David Bowie create both music and art.

I'm terrible with money, absolutely awful. I'm always losing it.

I have a life coach out with me on tour, a very nice guy from L.A. He just prepares me for each day.
