All my life there's always been an ex-wife or a girlfriend.

I am a big fan of the Impressionists, and in my school days, I was inspired by Caravaggio, Velazquez and Rembrandt.

We're great, Jo and me. We're pals, and I guess sex has a lot to do with it. She's also brilliant at clearing a room. So protective, so devoted. I can't believe how much she loves me.

It's taken folk a while to come around, hasn't it? Even the boys in the band weren't too sure about the whole art thing. They just wanted me to concentrate on the music. But they respect it now.

In my family, they were all big boozers, but they all lived to ripe old ages.

All my life there's always been an ex-wife or a girlfriend.

Let's face it: I paint well. I know it, you know it. There's no arguing really, is there?
