I have no idea what happens, but I do respond to other cultures that treat life with a much more positive approach.

But I've always been blessed with being easily ignored or avoided. I think maybe it's because people think I look a little crazy.

Tim Burton
Most people say about graveyards: Oh, it's just a bunch of dead people. It's creepy. But for me, there's an energy to it that it not creepy, or dark. It has a positive sense to it.

Don't worry about how you 'should' draw it. Just draw it the way you see it.
Tim Burton
When you don’t have many friends and you don’t have a social life you’re kind of left looking at things, not doing things. There’s a weird freedom in not having people treat you like you’re part of society or where you have to fulfill social relationships.
Tim Burton
When I was a kid I always wanted to be a mad scientist. I don't know... a regular scientist just was no one.

The good thing about animation is that you can affect it. If something is not working, then you just fix it.
