Once you take yourself too seriously the art will suffer.

I love to draw pencil, ink pen. I love art. When I go on tour and visit museums in Holland, Germany, or England, you know those huge paintings? I'm just amazed. You don't think a painter could do something like that. I can look at a piece of sculpture or a painting and totally lose myself in it.

Art keeps me alive. I've obviously been devastated or heartbroken all my life, since my mother's death.

Study the science of art. Study the art of science. Develop your senses- especially learn how to see. Realize that everything connects to everything else.

Art is about building a new foundation, not just laying something on top of what's already there.

The purpose of art is to stop time.
