Artists Are Like Everybody Else.

I Believe All Painting And Art Should Be Uplifting For The Viewer.

Making Art, Good Art, Is Always A Struggle. It Can Make You Happy When You Pull It Off. There's No Better Feeling. It's Beauteous. But It's Always About Hard Work And Inspiration And Sweat And Good Ideas.

Being Best Is A False Goal, You Have To Measure Success On Your Own Terms.

The Idea Is More Important Than The Object.

Whenever I've Been Well-known Or Hitting The Press, I've Always Had To Get My Credit Card Out To Prove I'm Damien Hirst.
