Creative people are curious, flexible, and independent with a tremendous spirit and a love of play.

What I dream of is an art of balance, of purity and serenity devoid of troubling or depressing subject matter - a soothing, calming influence on the mind, rather like a good armchair which provides relaxation from physical fatigue.

The truly original artist invents his own signs.

I don't paint things. I only paint the difference between things.
