You can't make a perfect painting. We can see perfection in our minds. But we can't make a perfect painting.
That which takes us by surprise-moments of happiness-that is inspiration.
I hope I have made it clear that the work is about perfection as we are aware of it in our minds but that the paintings are very far from being perfect - completely removed in fact - even as we ourselves are.
It is commonly thought that everything that is can be put into words.
I used to meditate until I learned to stop thinking.
What we really want to do is serve happiness. We want everyone to be happy, never unhappy even for a moment. We want the animals to be happy. The happiness of every living thing is what we want.
