Art Has This Ability To Allow You

People Have Different Ideas, Emotional Ideas, Of What Certain Words Mean, And They Think Of Irony As Something That's More Associated With Being Cynical-it's Kind Of A Put-down.

The Job Of The Artist Is To Make A Gesture And Really Show People What Their Potential Is. It's Not About The Object, And It's Not About The Image; It's About The Viewer. That's Where The Art Happens.

Abstraction And Luxury Are The Guard Dogs Of The Upper Class.

I Thought I Would Call Myself A Pig Before The Viewer Could, So They Could Only Think More Of Me.

When I View The World, I Don't Think Of My Own Work. I Think Of My Hope That, Through Art, People Can Get A Sense Of The Type Of Invisible Fabric That Holds Us All Together, That Holds The World Together.
