"Most artists are doing basically the same thing — staying off the streets."

"I’m dead serious about being nonsensical."

"I am not a big fan of meaning. Logic is also another nebulous thought. I attempt to bring threads of subjects, however shaggy, to my work and inject little suggesters to the picture itself, and this often puts a smile on my face."

"There's room for saying things in bright shiny colours."
