I've always been super into pretty much anything. I like clothing, I like cars, I like watches. I just like things that look good. I feel like art is more than just what you would call art. I feel like certain cars are art, certain watches are works of art.
Sometimes the way you find something is by figuring out what you need to leave behind.
The reason I love painting is because I've had so many other jobs, if you want to call them that career and all this other thing. And this is what makes me smile, and this is what's me, and this is what makes me happy. So I have something to compare it to.
