A Canvas Is An Arena In Which

I Continue To Get Further Away From The Usual Painter's Tools Such As Easel, Palette, Brushes, Etc. I Prefer Sticks, Trowels, Knives And Dripping Fluid Paint Or A Heavy Impasto With Sand, Broken Glass Or Other Foreign Matter Added.

I've Had A Period Of Drawing On Canvas In Black - With Some Of My Early Images Coming Thru -, Think The Non-objectivists Will Find Them Disturbing - And The Kids Who Think It Simple To Splash A 'pollock' Out.

Painting Is No Problem. The Problem Is What To Do When You're Not Painting.

It Doesn't Make Much Difference How The Paint Is Put On As Long As Something Has Been Said. Technique Is Just A Means Of Arriving At A Statement.

Modern Art To Me Is Nothing More Than The Expression Of Contemporary Aims Of The Age We’re Living In. All Cultures Have Had Means And Techniques Of Expressing Their Immediate Aims – The Chinese, The Renaissance, All Cultures. The Thing That Interests Me Is That Today Painters Do Not Have To Go To A Subject Matter Outside Of Themselves. Most Modern Painters Work From A Different Source, They Work From Within.
