| Quotes: |
When I'm painting, I'm not aware of what I'm doing. It's only after a get acquainted period that I see what I've been about. I've no fears about making changes for the painting has a life of its own.
<br />
<hr>
It is only when I lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess. Otherwise there is pure harmony, an easy give and take, and the painting comes out well.
<br />
<hr>
I'm very representational some of the time, and a little all of the time. But when you're painting out of your unconscious, figures are bound to emerge.
<br />
<hr>
Today painters do not have to go to a subject matter outside of themselves. Most modern painters work from a different source. They work from within.
<br />
<hr>
I hardly ever stretch the canvas before painting. |
