In the place where I was a child, there were no artists and there was no art, so I really didn't know what that meant. I think I thought it meant that I would be in a situation different than the one that I was in.

Generally, I am opposed to painting which is concerned with conceptions of simplicity. Everything looks busy to me.

I have meant what I have done. Or I have often meant what I have done. Or I have sometimes meant what I have done. Or I have tried to mean what I was doing.

I never wish for critics.

I tend to like things that already exist.

Most of the power of painting comes through the manipulation of space... but I don't understand that.

Take an object. Do something to it. Do something else to it.
