I love drawings, so I've always enjoyed making drawings that exist on their own.
There was very little art in my childhood.
Most of the power of painting comes through the manipulation of space... but I don't understand that.
I have no ideas about what the paintings imply about the world. I don't think that's a painter's business. He just paints paintings without a conscious reason.
A picture ought to be looked at the same way you look at a radiator.
I think a painting should include more experience than simply intended statement.
