What you have to do is break all the rules.

I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape. Something waits beneath it; the whole story doesn't show.

I love to study the many things that grow below the corn stalks and bring them back to the studio to study the color. If one could only catch that true color of nature - the very thought of it drives me mad.

If you clean it up, get analytical, all the subtle joy and emotion you felt in the first place goes flying out the window.

I'm not at all interested in painting the object just as it is in nature. Certainly I'm much more interested in the mood of a thing than the truth of a thing.

My aim is to escape from the medium with which I work.

If somehow I can, before I leave this earth, combine my absolutely mad freedom and excitement with truth, then I will have done something.
