I Don't Work With Inspiration.

The Thing That Interests Me About Photography, And Why It's Different From All Other Media, Is That It's The Only Medium In Which There Is Even The Possibility Of An Accidental Masterpiece.

Never Let Anyone Define What You Are Capable Of By Using Parameters That Don’t Apply To You.

If It Looks Like Art, Chances Are It's Somebody Else's Art.

Inspiration Is For Amateurs. The Rest Of Us Just Show Up And Get To Work. If You Wait Around For The Clouds To Part And A Bolt Of Lightning To Strike You In The Brain, You Are Not Going To Make An Awful Lot Of Work. All The Best Ideas Come Out Of The Process; They Come Out Of The Work Itself.

Neurologically, I'm A Quadriplegic, So Virtually Everything About My Work Has Been Driven By My Learning Disabilities, Which Are Quite Severe, And My Lack Of Facial Recognition, Which I'm Sure Is What Drove Me To Paint Portraits In The First Place.
