I paint not the things I see but the feelings they arouse in me.
To be right is the most terrific personal state that nobody is interested in.
You instinctively like what you can't do.
If you're a painter, you're not alone. There's no way to be alone.
If I feel a painting I'm working on doesn't have imagery or emotion, I paint it out and work over it until it does.
People sometimes think I take a white canvas and paint a black sign on it,but this is not true.I paint the white as well as the black and the white is just as important.
