I've always had a good handle on drawing children.
I admired anybody who could make a buck with his drawing.
My father was a painter and he taught art. He once said to me, 'I never knew an Indian child who could not draw.'
Not very many people can draw who are illustrators today.
Many are they who have a taste and love for drawing, but no talent; and this will be discernible in boys who are not diligent and never finish their drawings with shading.
I am not sure that it is a bad thing to go to a school, as I did, where the boys threw things at me, and asked if there was nothing else I could do [but draw].
I'm pretty rubbish, as we say in Britain, artwise, and I always envy people who can pick up something and even do just a little doodle of someone that looks vaguely like them. It's impressive.
I'm a great admirer of cartoons, because I can't do cartoons.
I'm a horrible drawer. I have no artistic ability in my hands.
I had a fistfight with every kid on my block. I got about fifteen broken noses to prove it. Part of it was also because I was always drawing, and I always had an artist portfolio with me. But I was a tough kid. I won their respect.
I can draw really well.
I am a 'made' cartoonist, but I was born a comic.
I draw all the time. Drawing is my backbone. I don't think a painter has to be able to draw, I just think that if you draw, you better draw well.
I am unable to comment on who may or may not be Banksy, but anyone described as 'good at drawing' doesn't sound like Banksy to me.
I guess I just don't have the killer instinct that I think makes a great political cartoonist.
