“I’d like to keep making images. I don’t have a clear vision of where I’d like it to go, just impulses that carry me from day to day. I hope I will be making my best work until the day that I’m too decrepit to hold a brush.”

I would turn it around in my mind like a toy, projecting the flat picture into the multi-dimensional world of my imagination.

"At the moment, the “Hunting Party” remains a favorite of mine. I think the best paintings of mine are born from the deepest recesses of the mind, from dark and surprising places.“

“Keep making work even if you don’t know what you have to say. You’ll only find your voice through the struggle.”
