Color harmony was thrown out years ago, as restrictive chains were broken forming my free style.
For example, I like using strong Greek and Roman Renaissance characters as part of my series.
The colors I use may clash or vibrate against one another but this is done intentionally.
The most important thing taught to my students is to not be so photo realist in what they depict.
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.
People need to have compassion for others.
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.
I speak African. I can even speak Italian.

I still believe in marriage.

I am just working on staying alive.
