He Drove His Kind Of Realism At

Abstract Painting Is Abstract. It Confronts You.

It Seems To Me That The Modern Painter Cannot Express This Age, The Airplane, The Atom Bomb, The Radio, In The Old Forms Of The Renaissance Or Of Any Other Past Culture. Each Age Find Its Own Technique.

It Is Only When I Lose Contact With The Painting That The Result Is A Mess. Otherwise There Is Pure Harmony, An Easy Give And Take, And The Painting Comes Out Well.

The Modern Artist Is Working With Space And Time, And Expressing His Feelings Rather Than Illustrating.

With Experience It Seems To Be Possible To Control The Flow Of Paint, To A Great Extent, And I Don't Use - I Don't Use The Accident - 'cause I Deny The Accident... It's Quite Different From Working, Say, From A Still Life Where You Set Up Objects And Work Directly From Them. I Do Have A General Notion Of What I'm About And What The Results Will Be. I Approach Painting In The Same Sense As One Approaches Drawing, That Is, It's Direct.
