Art is expressing what I am.

I cannot express myself as finely through words, or cooking or teaching or through a thousand other skills.

I paint to express my heart. It just so happens that the way I apply the paint appeals to the public so they buy the canvas with my paint on it.

Every person is an artist in some aspect of their life but most are not recognised by society as having any special value.

I am fortunate in that, the way I express ‘who I am’ appeals to the ‘who I am’ in many people.

Successful artists are not clever, they are lucky. Lucky that society is willing to pay for their form of expression.

I have been a professional artist for over 30 years. Not surprisingly, I have learned a few things about art and life.

Some of these things have been expressed through writing and illustration of these words. A lot of these words are not conventional, so straight people will not be comfortable reading them.

Hey! I am an artist, I am allowed to be a bit weird. I am encouraged to be a bit different and to express new ideas through my work.

I love the concept of the infinite. I understand when I look out into the sky that we live within the infinite. We are not going to go there when we die, we are already there! You cannot come and go from infinity, you are there as a part of it now! You forgot, that’s all.
