I Sometimes Feel That I

I Think As An Artist You Have To Reinvent Yourself Every Day.

I Definitely Think About Death. And Every Day Your Relationship With Death Changes. And Every Day I Sort Of Feel Like I Know It More. I've Always Thought About It.

I Have Always Been Aware That You Have To Get People Listening Before You Can Change Their Minds. Any Artist's Big Fear Is Being Ignored, So If You Get Debate, That's Great.

Sensation Is An Element Of What I Do, And Why Not? It's Not Sensational For The Sake Of Being Sensational, But It's Sensational Art... It's Like Touching Skin.

When I Used To Do Abstract Paintings At School, Like Everyone Else, The Tutor Said These Would Make Great Curtains. I Would Always Neglect The Formal Stuff That Was Going On By Using Colour, Because Colour Kind Of Came Naturally To Me.
