The problem of a painting is physical and metaphysical, the same as I think life is physical and metaphysical.

Any art worthy of its name should address 'life', 'man', 'nature', 'death' and 'tragedy'.

Sculpture is what you bump into when you back up to see a painting.

It is our function as artists to make the spectator see the world our way not his way.

I hope that my painting has the impact of giving someone, as it did me, the feeling of his own totality, of his own separateness, of his own individuality.

We are in the process of making the world, to a certain extent, in our own image.

I prefer to leave the paintings to speak for themselves.
