I am not brave enough to not pay my income tax and risk going to jail. But I can say rather freely what I want to say with my art.

In this speedy world of ours when facts are multiplying rapidly and giant rearrangements are happening all around us, it seems dangerous to be made nervous by the new - to want what we can never have, to want things not to be rearranged. It would be better to be able to take the leap, which is to be able not only to live with change and newness, but even to help make it.

Creativity belongs to the artist in each of us. To create means to relate. The root meaning of the word art is 'to fit together' and we all do this every day.

A painting is a symbol for the universe. Inside it, each piece relates to the other. Each piece is only answerable to the rest of that little world. So, probably in the total universe, there is that kind of total harmony, but we get only little tastes of it.

I am not brave enough to not pay my income tax and risk going to jail. But I can say rather freely what I want to say with my art.

That's why people listen to music or look at paintings. To get in touch with that wholeness.

Life is a succession of moments, to live each one is to succeed.
