Copyright on why he draws females:
"When I started trying out ideas, before I was using the name Copyright, I was looking for subjects to paint, and as a young guy I decided I wanted to paint sexy women. But over time I began to realise the female form – and more importantly the facial expression – worked as a good storyteller, especially for the types of messages I wanted to paint: sorrow, loss, all the melancholy stuff, but wrapped up and disguised in a pretty face. It worked perfectly for making what on the surface looks like just a pretty picture but when you look into it you start to realise there’s other stuff going on. So over the years I’ve been able to develop stories and dialogues within the paintings, the mythology, and more recently the Shakespeare stuff, so the paintings have more depth."
