My Paintings Are Certainly Nonobjective. They're Just Horizontal Lines. There's Not Any Hint Of Nature. And Still Everybody Responds, I Think.

When I Think Of Art I Think Of Beauty. Beauty Is The Mystery Of Life. It Is Not In The Eye It Is In The Mind. In Our Minds There Is Awareness Of Perfection.

I Want To Emphasize The Fact That We All Have The Same Experience And The Same Concern, But The Artist Must Know Exactly What The Experience Is. He Must Pursue The Truth Relentlessly. Once He Sees This Fact His Feet Are On The Path. If You Want To Know The Truth You Will Know It. The Manipulation Of Materials In An Artwork Is A Result Of This State Of Mind. The Artist Works By Awareness Of His Own State Of Mind.

I Once Taught Art To Adults In A Night Course. I Had A Woman Who Painted Her Back Yard, And She Said It Was The First Time She Had Ever Really Looked At It. I Think Everyone Sees Beauty. Art Is A Way To Respond

You Can't Make A Perfect Painting. We Can See Perfection In Our Minds. But We Can't Make A Perfect Painting.
