“I’m not an abstractionist... I’m not interested in the relationship of color or form or anything else. I’m interested only in expressing basic human emotions.”
“A painting is not a picture of an experience, but is the experience.” “I paint large, because I want to be intimate and human.” “The most important thing about art is to work. Nothing else matters except sitting down every day and trying.” “I’m interested in the relationship of color to color, and color to form.” |
