Painting That Does Not Radiate Feeling Is

A Subject Emerges From An Interaction Between My Self, My I, And My Medium.

In The Brush Doing What It Is Doing, It Will Stumble On What One Could Not Do By Oneself.

I Dislike A Picture That Is Too Suave Or Too Skilfully Done. But, Contrariwise, I Also Dislike A Picture That Looks Too Inept Or Blundering.

Nothing As Drastic An Innovation As Abstract Art Could Have Come In To Existence, Save As The Consequence Of A Most Profound, Relentless, Unquenchable Need. The Need Is For Felt Experience - Intense, Immediate, Direct, Subtle, Unified, Warm, Vivid, Rhythmic.

I Started With Straight, Basic, Symbolic Structures. My Problem Now Is The Opposite; As I Get Older, I Try To Make My Paintings More Contrapuntal, Richer.
