“When you draw something it lives and when you photograph it it dies”

“You know, when someone has been crying, something gets left in the air. It's not something you can see or smell, or feel. Or draw. But it's there.”

“Wittgenstein once wrote that when the eye sees something beautiful, the hand wants to draw it. I wish I could draw you.”

“What you do for yourself dies with you when you leave this world, what you do for others lives on forever.”

“Some people believe that a person’s spirit is captured when they are photographed. I invite those of you who don’t believe that to take a photograph of someone you love a stab it repeatedly with a pair of scissors. Maybe they do capture something of the soul.”

“The absence of pain means death, so when something no longer bothers you, you've died to that thing.”

“Because when you love something, you want to do it all the time, even if no one is paying you for it. At least that's how I felt about drawing.”

“I can see this, I suppose you could call it, aura of colors that words can't describe around living things. And when something dies the aura fades leaving something that's not easy to look at. It appears empty in a way that makes you feel empty too!”

“When something dies is the greatest teaching.”

“I do graphics commercially for a living, but when I get affected by things, when something happens in the world, I usually communicate online with my drawings.”
