“One thing kids like is to be tricked. For instance, I was going to take my little nephew to Disneyland, but instead I drove him to an old burned-out warehouse. 'Oh, no!', I said, 'Disneyland burned down.' He cried and cried, but I think that deep down he thought it was a pretty good joke. I started to drive over to the real Disneyland, but it was getting pretty late.”

I sense that perhaps he has enough paintings in "storage" that he can keep coming up with new product for a while.
I'd give it all up, for just a little bit more.

Whatever I think of his work, it still pains me to see someone pass at such a relatively young age.
It was hard to avoid the feeling that somebody, somewhere, was missing the point. I couldn't even be sure that it wasn't me. - Douglas Adams
