I did not want windows, only skylights. I chose my painting wall as it has the best morning light.

My drawings have to be quick. If they don't happen in 20 minutes or a half hour, then they're no good.

Photography isolates the world via an aperture and gives the photographer the means to see differently, to achieve a spontaneous vision that is direct and uncompromising.

The negative is just as important as the positive.

The most pleasurable thing in the world, for me, is to see something and then translate how I see it.

The paintings to me are always canvas, sculpture has always been metal, though I have made sculpture in wood also.

The form of my painting is the content. My work is made of single or multiple panels: rectangle, curved, or square. I am less interested in marks on the panels than the 'presence' of the panels themselves. In Red Yellow Blue III the square panels present color. It was made to exist forever in the present; it is an idea and can be repeated anytime in the future.
