Something Becomes Personal When It Deviates From

My Dad Used To Draw These Great Cartoon Figures. His Dream Was Being A Cartoonist, But He Never Achieved It, And It Kind Of Broke My Heart. I Think Part Of My Interest In Art Had To Do With His Yearning For Something He Could Never Have.

I Thrive On Production. It Feels Very Much Like A Natural Environment For Me.

I'd Love To Just Think Of Myself As A Filmmaker, And I Wait For The Day When The Modifier Can Be A Moot Point.

My Movement From Painting To Film Was A Very Conscious One.

I Began To Exercise A Lot Of Cinematic Muscle With The Precepts I Had Learned In The New York Art World. Film Was Intriguing. I Began To Think Of Art As Elitist, Whereas Film Was Not.
