For me, art really starts with acceptance, self trust. Wherever you come to with art, it's perfect. You don't have to come with anything. What you bring to something is the art. That's where it's found. It's found within you.

I think about my work every minute of the day.

It's not about finding relevance or perfection or imperfection in objects, but it's that you can accept yourself and then go out and accept others.

I always liked Disney films. To this day I think 'Bambi' is great.

I've always enjoyed feeling a connection to the avant-garde, such as Dada and surrealism and pop art. The only thing the artist can do is be honest with themselves and make the art they want to make. That's what I've always done.

Art helped give me confidence.
