When it came to my art, I went my own way and did not follow the trends.
I hope my work has inspired young artists. I have always tried to maintain my freedom as an artist and I feel it is one of the main reasons I have been successful.
Knowing what to take out and what to leave in is what separates the men from the boys.
I want to do something that nobody has done before me. And I want to do it in such a way that nobody will forget me for it.
Good or bad, the one thing I can say about my art is, if I can quote Sinatra, I did it my way.
By the time I was a teenager, I knew I wanted to be an artist. I was a born draftsman and liked all forms of art, so I just knew that's what I wanted to do.
