Picasso's Always Been Such A Huge Influence That I Thought When I Started The Cartoon Paintings That I Was Getting Away From Picasso, And Even My Cartoons Of Picasso Were Done Almost To Rid Myself Of His Influence.

Organized Perception Is What Art Is All About.

Usually I Begin Things Through A Drawing, So A Lot Of Things Are Worked Out In The Drawing. But Even Then, I Still Allow For And Want To Make Changes. I Kind Of Do The Drawing With The Painting In Mind, But It's Very Hard To Guess At A Size Or A Color And The Colors Around It And What It Will Really Look Like. It's Only A Guess At The Beginning, And Then I Try To Refine It.

Painting Stems From A Sense Of Organisation, The Sensed Positions Of Contrasts. Not That It Is About This.

My Work Isn't About Form. It's About Seeing. I'm Excited About Seeing Things, And I'm Interested In The Way I Think Other People See Things.
