I'd Rather Risk An Ugly Surprise Than

In Relations With People, As In Art, If You Always Stick To Style, Manners, And What Will Work, And You're Never Caught Off Guard, Then Some Beautiful Experiences Never Happen.

I've Explored A Variety Of Directions And Themes Over The Years. But I Think In My Painting You Can See The Signature Of One Artist, The Work Of One Wrist.

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

What Has Made It Work, Or What Makes Certain Paintings Successful Or Not, Has To Do With My Being A Painter And A Thinking, Feeling Person, More Than My Sex, Color, Height, Origin.

I'd Rather Risk An Ugly Surprise Than Rely On Things I Know I Can Do.
