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 artist begins with a vision - a creative operation requiring effort. Creativity takes courage.

Seeing is in itself a creative act which requires effort.

I am curious about color as one would be visiting a new country, because I have never concentrated so closely on color expression. Up to now I have waited at the gates of the temple.

Drawing is like making an expressive gesture with the advantage of permanence.

Purer colors... have in themselves, independently of the objects they serve to express, a significant action on the feelings of those who look at them.

The essential thing is to work in a state of mind that approaches prayer.
