I'd Always Wanted To Know The Difference

I Suppose I Would Still Prefer To Sit Under A Tree With A Picnic Basket Rather Than Under A Gas Pump, But Signs And Comic Strips Are Interesting As Subject Matter.

I Take A Cliche And Try To Organize Its Forms To Make It Monumental. The Difference Is Often Not Great, But It Is Crucial.

Use The Worst Colour You Can Find In Each Place - It Usually Is The Best.

Im Interested In What Would Normally Be Considered The Worst Aspects Of Commercial Art. I Think Its The Tension Between What Seems To Be So Rigid And Cliched And The Fact That Art Really Cant Be This Way.

Color Is Crucial In Painting, But It Is Very Hard To Talk About. There Is Almost Nothing You Can Say That Holds Up As A Generalization, Because It Depends On Too Many Factors: Size, Modulation, The Rest Of The Field, A Certain Consistency That Color Has With Forms, And The Statement You're Trying To Make.
