Every Good Painter Paints What He Is.

He Drove His Kind Of Realism At Me So Hard I Bounced Right Into Nonobjective Painting.

I Want To Express My Feelings Rather Than Illustrate Them.

I Do Not Paint Nature. I Am Nature.

Art Is Coming Face To Face With Yourself.

Well, Method Is, It Seems To Me, A Natural Growth Out Of A Need, And From A Need The Modern Artist Has Found New Ways Of Expressing The World About Him. I Happen To Find Ways That Are Different From The Usual Techniques, Which Seems A Little Strange At The Moment, But I Don't Think There's Anything Very Different About It. I Paint On The Floor And This Isn't Unusual - The Orientals Did That.
