apparently he was smoking since he was 8 lol
also was a massive sugar fiend
anyway thanks for that quote
the reason i feel like a friend has died was not because his work, which will endure time, but because of his interviews about art and his work habits and the creative process and generally "words of advice for young people" to paraphrase bill burroughs
so to me he felt more like an eccentric i liked than just a maker of things
i mean little things like this, i love that they exist

oh but this one, i really like this. he's in his studio working on paintings, smoking, reminiscing, his kid is around, it's either a very good documentary or maybe i just like him
