"I think as a child you’re always drawing, coloring and doing crafts and that’s totally normal and seems to be what you do as a kid. And I think the weird tragedy is that when you become an adult, you grow up - you lose that. You stop creating, you stop involving yourself in the joy of coloring and creation. I just feel like I was lucky enough to never really lose that."
- Ed Templeton in Beautiful Losers(2008)
