The Idea Of Space Is Given To The Artist To Change If He Can. The Subject Matter In The Abstract Is Space.

I'm Not Interested In 'abstracting' Or Taking Things Out Or Reducing Painting To Design, Form, Line, And Color. I Paint This Way Because I Can Keep Putting More Things In It - Drama, Anger, Pain, Love, A Figure, A Horse, My Ideas About Space. Through Your Eyes It Again Becomes An Emotion Or Idea.

Every So Often, A Painter Has To Destroy Painting. Cezanne Did It, Picasso Did It With Cubism. Then Pollock Did It. He Busted Our Idea Of A Picture All To Hell. Then There Could Be New Paintings Again.
