A Picture That Is Beautiful, Or That

A Picture That Is Beautiful, Or That Comes Off, Or That Works, Looks As If It Was All Made At One Stroke.

We Would Sift Through Every Inch Of What It Was That Worked, Or If It Didn't, And Wonder What Was Effective In It, In Terms Of Paint, The Subject Matter, The Size, The Drawing.

There Are No Rules. That Is How Art Is Born, How Breakthroughs Happen. Go Against The Rules Or Ignore The Rules. That Is What Invention Is About.

I Don't Resent Being A Female Painter. I Don't Exploit It. I Paint.

I Have Always Been Concerned With Painting That Simultaneously Insists On A Flat Surface And Then Denies It.
