halloween
Every day is Halloween, isnt it? For some of us…
dream real kids
I feel any time you enter a dream world it's like you're working out things, it's all inside your mind and you're working it out, be it Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, or the kids in Narnia, they go through this weird journey that's not real, and they're going through this journey psychologically. It's that journey of discovery, of getting onself together, that fantasy and fairy tales are so good at. And while some people still look upon them as completely unrealistic, for me they're more real than most things that are perceived as real.
dog powerful real
If you ever had a pet, with me it was a dog, with that sort of unconditional love that only dogs can give, people can't do that; that sort of thing where it's very powerful, it's kind of your first love and your first real relationship, and usually your first experience with death.
worry way should
Don't worry about how you 'should' draw it. Just draw it the way you see it.
simplicity childhood trying
Things that I grew up with stay with me. You start a certain way, and then you spend your whole life trying to find a certain simplicity that you had. It's less about staying in childhood than keeping a certain spirit of seeing things in a different way.
mean america people
Maybe it's just in America, but it seems that if you're passionate about something, it freaks people out. You're considered bizarre or eccentric. To me, it just means you know who you are.
inspirational life i-hate-you
One person's craziness is another person's reality.
dream moon night
I am the shadow on the moon at night/Filling your dreams to the brim with fright.
beautiful growing-up knowing
When we were growing up and saw a Ray Harryhausen movie, we were interested in how it was done. But thank God we got to go through the magic of seeing it before we knew how it was done. You were able to get this beautiful, pure, visceral response to something without knowing too much about it.
people strange unusual
Live people ignore the strange and unusual. I myself, am strange and unusual.
inspirational motivational dream
Visions are worth fighting for. Why spend your life making someone else's dreams?
children ambition always-trying
Anybody with artistic ambitions is always trying to reconnect with the way they saw things as a child.
thinking self-loathing self-hatred
[T]hou canst not think worse of me than I do of myself.
friendship old-friends enemy
Old friends become bitter enemies on a sudden for toys and small offenses.
