I Knew From The Age Of Five What I Wanted To Do. The One Thing I Could Do Was Draw. I Couldn't Draw That Much Better Than Some Of The Other Kids, But I Cared More And I Wanted It Badly.

I Think I Was Driven To Paint Portraits To Commit Images Of Friends And Family To Memory. I Have Face Blindness, And Once A Face Is Flattened Out, I Can Remember It Better.

The Camera Is Objective. When It Records A Face It Can't Make Any Hierarchical Decisions About A Nose Being More Important Than A Cheek. The Camera Is Not Aware Of What It Is Looking At. It Just Gets It All Down.

I Love Making Art... It's Largely How I See Myself. I'm An Artist; Therefore I Have To Make Art.
