I get inspiration from things that have nothing to do with painting: caricature, items from newspapers, sights in the street, proverbs, nursery-rhymes, children's games and songs, nightmares, desires, terrors. . . . That question [why do you paint?] has been put to me before and my answer was, 'To give terror a face. ' But it's more than that. I paint because I can't help it.
All I need is a sheet of paper and something to write with, and then I can turn the world upside down.
