"My studio is never quiet, everything is accompanied by music. It affects my work intimately. Almost all of my works are named after lyrics or song titles that have influenced that particular work and the psychological overtones the music creates permeate the works. It changes with each painting. It is autobiographical and is reflected in the image, becoming my mixtape, the soundtrack to my life." –Todd Hunter
