Art comes from everywhere. It's your response to your surroundings.

It's such a crass idea - you're either in love or out of love.

I can't understand why most people believe in medicine and don't believe in art, without questioning either.

Painting is so poetic, while sculpture is more logical and scientific and makes you worry about gravity.

I sometimes feel that I have nothing to say and I want to communicate this.

I believe all painting and art should be uplifting for the viewer.

I love color. I feel it inside me. It gives me a buzz.

We have too many high sounding words and too few actions that correspond with them.

Success is never permanent, and failure is never final.

If you can afford to advertise, you don't need to.

By choosing to be in His kingdom, we separate—not isolate—ourselves from the world.

It's what you do that counts and not what you say; therefore I fired my press agent.
