Everything That Is Strong In Me Has

I Draw The Line At Some Things. Some Things I Won't Do For Any Amount Of Money. Like For Instance, There's A Couple Of Ceos Of Very Large Corporations That Offered Me Lots Of Money To Do Special Pictures For Them. And I Just Refused To Do That. Even If It Was A Million Dollars I Wouldn't Do It.

I Use Photos A Lot For Drawing People And Personalities, But They're Almost Never Photos That I've Taken.

Some Of The Wealthy Collectors Have Paid Lots Of Money For Artwork That I Already Did, But I Didn't Do It With The Intention Of Catering To Them. I Think Part Of The Reason My Work Is Attractive To People Like That Is Because It Doesn't Cater To Them.

Some Things I Won't Do For Any Amount Of Money. That's So Demoralizing And Goes Against Every Principle That I Hold. It's Like, Okay, Some Rich People Can Buy Me Because I'm A Talented Guy. They Can Buy Talent. You Can't Buy It For Yourself, But You Can Buy Other People's Talent To Serve Your Purposes. And Once An Artist Does That, He Becomes Like A Plaything Of The Rich. You Know, Some Of These Wealthy Collectors Have Paid Lots Of Money For Artwork That I Already Did, But I Didn't Do It With The Intention Of Catering To Them.

I'm Just A Negative Person, A Deeply Negative Person. I See The Worst Aspects Of Everything.
