The Reason I Don't Like Realist, Photorealist,

There Are Things About Signing On To A Process Over The Long Term That Protect You From The Buffeting Winds Of Change.

All The Best Ideas Come Out Of The Process; They Come Out Of The Work Itself. Things Occur To You.if You're Sitting Around Trying To Dream Up A Great Idea, You Can Sit There A Long Time Before Anything Happens.but If You Just Get To Work, Something Will Occur To You And Something Else Will Occur To You And Something Else That You Reject Will Push You In Another Direction.

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.

Inspiration Is Highly Overrated. If You Sit Around And Wait For The Clouds To Part, It's Not Liable To Ever Happen. More Often Than Not, Work Is Salvation.
