I Wanted To Build Up A Name

I Was A Really Lousy Artist As A Kid. Too Abstract Expressionist; Or I'd Draw A Big Ram's Head, Really Messy. I'd Never Win Painting Contests. I Remember Losing To A Guy Who Did A Perfect Spiderman.

I Like Kids' Work More Than Work By Real Artists Any Day.

My Favorite Twombly Is 'apollo And The Artist,' With The Big 'apollo' Written Across It.

I Start A Picture And I Finish It.

I Had Some Money, I Made The Best Paintings Ever. I Was Completely Reclusive, Worked A Lot, Took A Lot Of Drugs. I Was Awful To People.
