It is my dream to create an art which is filled with balance, purity and calmness, freed from a subject matter that is disconcerting or too attention-seeking. In my paintings, I wish to create a spiritual remedy, similar to a comfortable armchair which provides rest from physical expectation for the spiritually working, the businessman as well as the artist.

The truly original artist invents his own signs.

I have been no more than a medium, as it were.

It has bothered me all my life that I do not paint like everybody else.

A young woman has young claws, well sharpened. If she has character, that is. And if she hasn't so much the worse for you.

My curves are not crazy.

A thimbleful of red is redder than a bucketful.
