I drew as a child, they tell me. I can vaguely remember doing it. And then I drew again in the late years at high school.

I don't think that my art isn't serious. I think the subjects are not serious, or my treatments of the subjects are not serious. But then, I'm also putting down subject, because like the abstract expressionists, I don't think the subject is important.

I'm not really sure what social message my art carries, if any. And I don't really want it to carry one. I'm not interested in the subject matter to try to teach society anything, or to try to better our world in any way.

I wasn't sure pop art or my work would last more than six months.

Everybody has called Pop Art 'American' painting, but it's actually industrial painting.
