Three words to describe myself? I don't know, that's pretty difficult... Artistic? Mm, happy-go-lucky. Yellow... Well, I'm not actually yellow, not right now, but I really love the colour. I love the sun and the sand and canary birds, I've got four at my new studio, and I really love yellow roses. Have you noticed that no one wants yellow roses? They're always the ones left behind in the afternoon, because no one's bought them. Sometimes, if I've got the money, I like to buy all the yellow roses left at the grocer's and just, put them in a big vase next to my bed. Then, when I wake, even if it's raining, I wake up to the most amazing light inside my flat. Yellow just radiates... optimism, you know? Yeah, I'd like to be yellow.
