I paint myself because I am so often alone and because I am the subject I know best.
I drank to drown my sorrows, but the damned things learned how to swim.
I love you more than my own skin and even though you don’t love me the same way, you love me anyways, don’t you? And if you don’t, I’ll always have the hope that you do, and I’m satisfied with that. Love me a little. I adore you.

I think that little by little I’ll be able to solve my problems and survive.

Mankind owns its destiny, and its destiny is the earth. We are destroying it until we have no destiny.
The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration.
