I have been no more than a medium, as it were.
After a half-century of hard work and reflection the wall is still there.
When I paint green, it doesn't mean grass; when I paint blue, it doesn't mean sky.
All my efforts go into creating an art that can be understood by everyone.
I wouldn't mind turning into a vermilion goldfish.
A rapid rendering of a landscape represents only one moment of its existence. I prefer, by insisting upon its essential character, to risk losing charm in order to gain greater stability.
