Monty Williams asks: Do I feel that I am giving into the art "establishment" by entering the gallery scene.

 

Flint answers:  I am working in a very very small condensed space. The lighting sucks, I get claustrophobic at times, there is too much dust for my liking, I am surrounded 360 with art materials, but I wouldn't change a thing.

 

Flint answers: Yes I will eventually have to get off the streets. So it is going from one form of prostitution to another, easy transition.

Flint answers: I have been making art since I was a small child,  I think its all in the genes.

Flint answers: One year differs from the next, but I will say quite alot. I try to work everyday.

Flint answers: Yes It has been all worth it, wouldn't change a thing. Happy means different things to different people

 

Flint answers: I watch alot of film, especially foreign flicks and silents, so I am sure something creeps in there once in a while

 

Flint answers:  Yes I learned alot from my Wall St days, it gave me a good business sense.

Flint answers: When you have an idea for a new piece of art theres your Holy Grail, trying to find the new materials on a constant basis.

Flint answers: I  proceed with caution before entering into anything, call it paranoia  if you must.
