While I Am Working I Am Not

Painting Is A Blind Man's Profession. He Paints Not What He Sees, But What He Feels, What He Tells Himself About What He Has Seen.

When I Was A Kid I Drew Like Michelangelo. It Took Me Years To Learn To Draw Like A Kid.

When I Paint I Feel That All The Artists Of The Past Are Behind Me.

It's Not What The Artist Does That Counts; It's What He Is.

...the Right To Free Expression Is Something One Seizes, Not Something One Is Given.... If It Does Exist, It Exists To Be Used Against The Established Order.... There Is Absolute Opposition Between The Artist And The State.
