I tend to like things that already exist.

There was very little art in my childhood. I was raised in South Carolina; I wasn't aware of any art in South Carolina. There was a minor museum in Charleston, which had nothing of interest in it. It showed local artists, paintings of birds.

Everybody is of course free to interpret the work in his own way. I think seeing a picture is one thing and interpreting it is another.

I don't know how to organise thoughts. I don't know how to have thoughts.

Merce is my favorite artist in any field.

To do a drawing for a painting most often means doing something very sketchy and schematic and then later making it polished.

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