I Think As An Artist You Have

In Fact, The First Piece Of Art I Ever Sold, I Paid Someone Else To Make The Next One, So I Could Actually Keep Going Out Drinking.

I Mean, People Listen To Music, And They Like That, But I Think In England, A Lot Of People Don't Like Contemporary Art.

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.

But I Think It's More That When You're Young, You're Invincible, You're Immortal - Or At Least You Think You Are. The Possibilities Are Limitless, You're Inventing The Future. Then You Get Older And Suddenly You Have A History. It's Fixed. You Can't Change Anything. I Find That A Bit Disturbing, To Be Honest.

The Spot Paintings, The Spin Paintings, They're All A Mechanical Way To Avoid The Actual Guy In A Room, Myself, With A Blank Canvas.
