“When I start a picture I like to finish it on the spot…in one sitting if possible. So I work quickly, and if it’s not right I begin again. I use different media but usually I draw with grease pencil and paint over it with tempera. There is no difference of feeling for me doing a painting or a commercial drawing, or type for an album cover. It’s all art, and it’s all exciting to do.”
