Smoking Calms Me Down. It's

Until I Saw My Drawings Replayed On The Ipad, I'd Never Seen Myself Draw. Someone Watching Me Would Be Concentrating On The Exact Moment, But I'd Always Be Thinking A Little Bit Ahead. That's Especially So In A Drawing Where You Are Limiting Yourself, A Line Drawing For Example. When You Are Doing Them You Are Very Tense, Because You Have To Reduce Everything To Such Simple Terms.

I Think Photography Has Made Us See The Landscape In A Very Dull Way - That's One Of Its Effects. It's Not Spatial.

I Stay Up Nights And Fiddle With My Opera Designs. It's A Bit Obsessive. That's Why I Can't Do It All The Time.

Faces Are The Most Interesting Things We See; Other People Fascinate Me, And The Most Interesting Aspect Of Other People - The Point Where We Go Inside Them - Is The Face. It Tells All.

Well You Can't Teach The Poetry, But You Can Teach The Craft.
