A Painting That Is Well Composed Is

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.

One Always Talks Of Surrendering To Nature. There Is Also Such A Thing As Surrendering To The Picture.

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.

The Painter's Only Solid Ground Is The Palette And Colors, But As Soon As The Colors Achieve An Illusion, They Are No Longer Judged.

Draw Your Pleasure, Paint Your Pleasure, And Express Your Pleasure Strongly.
