David Lynch on being a creative polymath: "I started out as a painter, and then painting led to cinema...Then cinema led to so many different areas—it led to still photography, music . . . Furniture is also a big love of mine. I started building these kind of sculptural lamps. Then I got into lithography...And I’ve always been painting along the way, as well as doing drawings and watercolors . . . There are just so many things out there for us to do."
