I continue to get further away from the usual painter's tools such as easel, palette, brushes, etc.

I have no fear of making changes, destroying the image, etc., because the painting has a life of its own.

People have always frightened and bored me consequently I have been within my own shell.

I've been thinking of death a lot, and I am amazed by its inevitability, frightened, as we all are, of the totally unknown, and yet feel a long sleep is somehow earned by those of us who live on the edge.

When I am in my painting, I'm not aware of what I'm doing.

Abstract painting is abstract. It confronts you.

The secret of success is… to be fully awake to everything about you.
