There Was Very Little Art In My

Sometimes I See It And Then Paint It. Other Times I Paint It And Then See It. Both Are Impure Situations, And I Prefer Neither. At Every Point In Nature There Is Something To See. My Work Contains Similar Possibilities For The Changing Focus Of The Eye.

Take An Object. Do Something To It. Do Something Else To It.

Early On I Was Very Involved With The Notion Of The Painting As An Object And Tended To Attack That Idea From Different Directions.

I Think That One Wants From A Painting A Sense Of Life. The Final Suggestion, The Final Statement, Has To Be Not A Deliberate Statement But A Helpless Statement. It Has To Be What You Can't Avoid Saying.

It’s Almost Just A Difference Of Mood As To Whether I Would Describe Myself One Way Or The Other. I Think I Share That Experience With Most People.
