My life provides me with these images that become expressions of my daily experience.

All I know is that mine was a completely new theory about art, a new approach that made the pictures appear just like life does.

I know how pathetically inadequate my medium [painting] is, but unfortunately I dispose of no other.

I am metaphysical inasmuch as I am looking for a non-eloquent painting, immobile and of atmosphere, which feeds on static situations.

My themes are derived from current events, from familiar situations, from daily life, because I never actively intervene against the object, I can feel the magic of its presence.

I never tried to stage, to fabricate an image.

I never lost the taste and craft of the Renaissance.
