“Star Wars came out when I was seven. It was so different from anything else, like peeking into the land of Oz. All you wanted to do was see it again and go back and see more of it. That feeling is not easy to reproduce. Eventually, you give up and try to recreate that feeling yourself.” GivingTryingDifferentWarFeelingsEasyGiving UpSeven Author:Damian Loeb
“Beauty has became a pejorative word in art. It was not something one should aspire to, because it was pedestrian. Beautiful things became cheap and easy. If it's cheap and easy, then upper classes aren't going to aspire to it. So, they have to find something more esoteric. I wanted the paintings to be realistic enough that you would have the ability to forget that I'm showing them to you.” ArtEnoughBeautifulEasyAbilityForgetPaintingRealisticBeautiful Things Author:Damian Loeb
