No one will be hurt if I don't come to conventions.

Writing and drawing comics for the sheer joy of it - that's true bliss.

George Perez

Picasso and Matisse were the guys I wanted to get away from, and cubism is all still lifes. Their paintings are all closed drawings. And still life is a perfect form for that. By the mid-'50s, I sort of dropped the still life. The large picture was a way of getting around them, too. The abstract expressionists were also into the large form because it was a way of getting around Matisse and Picasso. Picasso can't paint big paintings. Matisse didn't bother after a certain point.

Alex Katz Artist

The tattoo can only exist as part of the skin, as a drawing always is an incision in the material and therefore cannot be parted from it.

Antoni Tapies Painter

At the age of five years to enter a spinning-cotton or other factory, and from that time forth to sit there daily, first ten, then twelve, and ultimately fourteen hours, performing the same mechanical labour, is to purchase dearly the satisfaction of drawing breath. But this is the fate of millions, and that of millions more is analogous to it.

Arthur Schopenhauer Philosopher

By drawing our senses of perception inward, we are able to experience the control, silence, and quietness of the mind.

B.K.S. Iyengar Teacher

One must always draw, draw with the eyes, when one cannot draw with a pencil.

Balthus Artist

I was very nervous about doing the Entertainment Weekly cover, because I thought, "Okay, this is the first taste, this is the first visual moment." By then I obviously knew a lot of the more iconic moments in his comic history, but still it's me. It's not a drawing, it's not an artist; it's me and I'm kinda frightened, but it seemed to go down.
