I'm a tireless worker; I don't consider painting a work, it is not an obligation, I do it for pleasure; I haven't found anything that amuses me more than painting.

When you start a painting, it is somewhat outside you. At the conclusion, you seem to move inside the painting.

An artist is attracted to certain kinds of form without knowing why. You adopt a position intuitively; only later do you attempt to rationalize or even justify it.

I often think about death and it saddens me to leave this world and not be able to paint more. I love it so much.

In art, as long as you have ideas and think, you are bound to deform nature. Art is deformation.
