I'm Not An Abstractionist. I'm Not Interested

Art To Me Is An Anecdote Of The Spirit.

I Use Colors That Have Already Been Experienced Through The Light Of Day And Through The State Of Mind Of The Total Man. In Other Words, My Colors Are Not Colors That Are Laboratory Tools Which Are Isolated From All Accidentals Or Impurities So That They Have A Specified Identity Or Purity.

It Is Really A Matter Of Ending This Silence And Solitude, Of Breathing And Stretching One's Arms Again.

A Picture Lives By Companionship, Expanding And Quickening In The Eyes Of The Sensitive Observer. It Dies By The Same Token. It Is Therefore Risky To Send It Out Into The World. How Often It Must Be Impaired By The Eyes Of The Unfeeling And The Cruelty Of The Impotent.

I Am Here To Make You Think. . . . I Am Not Here To Make Pretty Pictures!
