If only people were trees… I might like them better.

I don't very much enjoy looking at paintings in general. I know too much about them. I take them apart.

I believe I would rather have Stieglitz like something - anything I had done - than anyone else I know.

Since I cannot sing, I paint.

I realized that were I to paint flowers small, no one would look at them because I was unknown. So I thought I'll make them big, like the huge buildings going up. People will be startled; they'll have to look at them - and they did.

Filling a space in a beautiful way - that is what art means to me.

Anyone who doesn't feel the crosses simply doesn't get that country.
