Pictures deface walls more often than they decorate them.

Every artist dips his brush in his own soul and paints his own nature into his pictures.

Pictures must not be too picturesque.

Every man's work whether it be literature or music or pictures or architecture or anything else is always a portrait of himself.

When I go outside of L.A. no matter where it is really anywhere I go people will be stopping me or taking pictures or whatever it is. And it's great. It's amazing. I'm just lucky.

It's odd because I used to see pictures on telly or wherever of what I now know to be Shaftesbury Avenue and I used to wonder what that amazing street with all the lights was. Well now I know. I think when you get a wee taste of something it maybe isn't what you thought it was.

I get such lovely gifts from fans... amazing pictures handmade jewellery. I'm very lucky!

If you're a basketball player and you don't stop and take pictures with your fans you can have an amazing game and everyone still loves you.

But the wicked passions of men's hearts alone seem strong enough to leave pictures that persist the good are ever too luke-warm.

Whoever wants to know something about me - as an artist which alone is significant - they should look attentively at my pictures and there seek to recognise what I am and what I want.
