The most important key to a more romantic life: you have to be willing to pay attention

I try to create paintings that are a window for the imagination. If people look at my work and are reminded of the way things once were, or perhaps, the way they could be, then I've done my job.

It's a simple liberating reality - the best things in life are mine for the choosing.

I am really the most controversial artist in the world.

Steeping my life in beauty brings color to my days and a song to my heart

Every conversation, every cuddle, aver kiss and caress, even every disagreement, adds another brushstroke to the picture of home you paint with the days and hours of your life.

We all have romantic nature of one kind or another buried somewhere in our hearts.
