The Task Of The Artist Is To

As Far As I Am Concerned The Paint Is The Person. I Want It To Work For Me Just As Flesh Does

Were It Not For This [dissatisfaction], The Perfect Painting Might Be Painted, On The Completion Of Which The Painter Could Retire. It Is This Great Insufficiency That Drives Him On. The Process Of Creation Becomes Necessary To The Painter Perhaps More Than It Is In The Picture. The Process Is In Fact Habit-forming.

I Use The Gallery As If It Were A Doctor. I Come For Ideas And Help - To Look At Situations Within Painting, Rather Than Paintings.

My Work Is Purely Autobiographical... It Is About Myself And My Surroundings.

Everything Is Autobiographical And Everything Is A Portrait.
