The modern artist is working with space and time, and expressing his feelings rather than illustrating.
A method of painting is a natural growth out of a need. I want to express my feelings rather than illustrate them. Technique is just a means of arriving at a statement.
Every good painter paints what he is.
A canvas is an arena in which to act.
Technique is just a means of arriving at a statement.
It is only when I lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess. Otherwise there is pure harmony, an easy give and take, and the painting comes out well.
