I have no distributor... it is indicative to me that there are these pockets of players and collectors all over. You should see the correspondence I get from over the world letting me know how significant they think I am. I know that wherever I go, I am well received. ↗

A collection makes its own demands. Many artists have been collectors. I think of it rather as an illness. I felt it was using up too much energy. ↗
