If you're an extraordinarily gifted woman, the door is open. What women are fighting for is the right to be as mediocre as men.

A work of art is the trace of a magnificent struggle.

Now as before it is the vulgar and the vital and the possibility of its transformation into the beautiful which continues to challenge and fascinate me.

Somehow, in painting I try to make some logic out of the world that has been given to me in chaos.

I cannot expect even my own art to provide all of the answers, only to hope it keeps asking the right questions.

I didn't choose painting, it chose me.I didn't have a talent,i just had genius

I don't mind being miserable as long as I'm painting well.
