There May Or May Not Be An

My Experience With Life Is That It's Very Fragmented. In One Place Certain Kinds Of Thing Occur, And In Another Place A Different Kind Of Thing Occurs. I Would Like My Work To Have Some Vivid Indication Of Those Differences. I Guess, In Painting, It Would Amount To Different Kinds Of Space Being Represented In It.

There Was Very Little Art In My Childhood. I Was Raised In South Carolina; I Wasn't Aware Of Any Art In South Carolina. There Was A Minor Museum In Charleston, Which Had Nothing Of Interest In It. It Showed Local Artists, Paintings Of Birds.

I Never Wish For Critics.

Whatever I Do Seems Artificial And False, To Me.

I Assumed That Everything Would Lead To Complete Failure, But I Decided That Didn't Matter – That Would Be My Life.
