Drawing is like making an expressive gesture with the advantage of permanence.

Art like morality consists in drawing the line somewhere.

Drawing is the honesty of the art. There is no possibility of cheating. It is either good or bad.

That's the conundrum of cartoon stripping as opposed to political cartoons. When your anger is the driving force of your drawing hand failure follows. The anger is OK but it has to serve the interests of the heart frankly.

Comics are so full of amazing work. And I can't look at a drawing of a woman without thinking of for instance Wallace Wood and his amazing way of capturing beauty.

My mother encouraged it so much. She was so supportive. Even if as a kid I would do the dumbest trick which now that I look back on some things she would love it she would say that's amazing or if I'd make the ugliest drawing she would hang it up. She was amazing.

I want to be alone and work until the day my heads hits the drawing table and I'm dead. Kaput. I feel very much like I want to be with my brother and sister again. They're nowhere. I know they're nowhere and they don't exist but if nowhere means that's where they are that's where I want to be.
