Color is my day-long obsession, joy and torment.
My garden is my most beautiful masterpiece
My work is always better when I am alone and follow my own impressions.
The richness I achieve comes from nature, the source of my inspiration.
I am very depressed and deeply disgusted with painting. It is really a continual torture.
I have made tremendous efforts to work in a darker register and express the sinister and tragic quality of the place, given my natural tendency to work in light and pale tones.
