Oliver Jeffers quotes:

If you care too much about what others think then you ultimately become what you think they want you to be.

Curiosity is the surest sign of intelligence

Everything we know has come from stories that have been told over and over again as truth. Those stories turn into history.

There's a thin line between destruction and creation.

I'm interested in how we define things by how we choose to observe them, and how everywhere in our lives, and in every moment we experience, there are forces at work that we don't fully understand. Couple this curiosity with a love of portraiture painting, and that's how this project was born.

The paintings each take several months to do and it's quite a cathartic and intense experience that's very pleasurable, but also very strange.

I started hiding my paintings in certain ways, like behind panes of glass for example. Then, instead of hiding them I did something quite cold and clinical: I built a wooden box, filled it with enamel paint and dunked the painting in so you could only see a suggestion of it from a controlled point of view.

I make figurative portraits as a way to explore theories of quantum physics.
