Aesthetics is to artists as ornithology is to birds.
It is our function as artists to make the spectator see the world our way not his way.
We are in the process of making the world, to a certain extent, in our own image.
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.
Aesthetics is for the artist like ornithology is for the birds.
I prefer to leave the paintings to speak for themselves.
