“It is a widely accepted notion among painters that it does not matter what one paints as long
as it is well painted. This is the essence of academicism. There is no such thing as good
painting about nothing.”
“I just draw the subjects that I like, based on my aesthetic, for myself. How my art work is interpreted is up to everyone else, so it can be distorted however one likes. I don’t have an answer myself! I’ll leave that up to the critic’s imagination.”
“I feel that my characters all have some part of my character. I feel that they’re all me in some way, certainly not in individuality, but they all bear elements of what I feel”
“No matter what the people around me say, creating is my freedom, my enjoyment of life, my energy.”
“Find what you love and let it kill you.”
