A Painting That Is Well Composed Is Half Finished.

What I Am After Is The First Impression - I Want To Show All One Sees On First Entering The Room - What My Eye Takes In At First Glance.

Drawing Is Feeling. Color Is An Act Of Reason.

One Does Not Always Sing Out Of Happiness.

What Attracted Me Was Less Art Itself Than The Artist’s Life And All That It Meant For Me: The Idea Of Creativity And Freedom Of Expression And Action. I Had Been Attracted To Painting And Drawing For A Long Time, But It Was Not An Irresistible Passion; What I Wanted, At All Costs, Was To Escape The Monotony Of Life.
