People need to have compassion for others.
I still get invitations from all over Europe to speak at dinners, and it's an honour that promoters and charities can use me to create income.
If you say you've had a nervous breakdown or things aren't right mentally, people run away from you. They think you're from 'One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest,' you know.
The colors I use may clash or vibrate against one another but this is done intentionally.
Strong line quality, composition and form are more crucial although even this is loosely done.
I wouldn't mind getting emotionally involved with a woman.
Boxing is a buzz, but I went into it to make a living. I wasn't going to go into the ring and get punched in the head for the fun of it.
I didn't play a great deal of sport in primary school. It was not until I went away to boarding school in Sussex that I really got into sport.
I'm not really a cutter-off sort of person. I'll chat to anybody.
And I want to say anything is possible. Comma. You know.

From my sketch files I'll find a pose that shows the emotion behind a particular character's story.
