Color is a plastic means of creating intervals... color harmonics produced by special relationships, or tensions. We differentiate now between formal tensions and color tensions, just as we differentiate in music between counterpoint and harmony.

Genius is gifted with a vitality which is expended in the enrichment of life through the discovery of new worlds of feeling.

My aim in painting is to create pulsating, luminous, and open surfaces that emanate a mystic light, in accordance with my deepest insight into the experience of life and nature.

What goes on in abstract art is the proclaiming of aesthetic principles... It is in our own time that we have become aware of pure aesthetic considerations. Art never can be imitation.

Art is to me the glorification of the human spirit, and as such it is the cultural documentation of the time in which it is produced.

The whole world, as we experience it visually, comes to us through the mystic realm of color.

I can't understand how anyone is able to paint without optimism.
