I love the title of 'hippy' because it means someone who is thinking cosmic and futuristic.

I know colors like some people know a melody. And the tunes of my favorite musicians energizes me when I work.

I never know what I'm going to put on the canvas. The canvas paints itself. I'm just the middleman.

The '60s were an amazing time.

It was a special thrill to meet, paint, and hang out with Ringo Starr.

For me, it was my first cosmic connection, on par with a first kiss. No other planet looks as unworldly or surreal as Saturn. When you see it floating in the eyepiece of your telescope, you feel as if you've uncovered mystery in the cosmos.

Master of the universe is every man's potential insight, cosmic potential.

I am a Leaper: a person who - thanks to some mathematical errors tied to the cosmic interactions of Earth and Sun and bad math on the part of some old timers long ago - is lost in time, born on a day that simply doesn't exist three out of four years.

I think God's wrath and purgatory are the only things keeping me on the straight and narrow. I like the idea of purgatory. It's like a cosmic do-over.
