I Make Sure I Make A Painting

It Is An Artist's Duty To Be On The Wrong End Of The See-saw.

My Favourite Things Are Jokes, Friendliness And Feeling Comfortable.

I've Always Liked New York, As I Like Towns With An Edge And New York Has A European Feel, So When I Came To Play Music Here In The '80s It Was A Surprise To Me.

Being A Fan Of Authentic Dada, I Find Today's Art - What I Call 'bankers' Dada' - Mind-numbingly Dull. The Most Challenging Work I've Seen Of Late Is By The British Art Resistance. Their Document, 'a Call For Heroes In An Age Of Cowards', Is Apt In These Days Of Witless Chancers.

I Liked Drawing And Painting, Because The Only Failure Would Be To Listen To The Doubters Who Wanted Me To Stop Drawing And Painting Because 'you Aren't Going To Make A Living Doing That.' I Liked Looking In Art Books At The Work Of Painters.
