The spectacle of the sky overwhelms me. Im overwhelmed when I see, in an immense sky, the crescent of the moon, or the sun. There, in my pictures, tiny forms in huge empty spaces. Empty spaces, empty horizons, empty plains - everything which is bare has always greatly impressed me.

Painting or poetry is made as one makes love - a total embrace, prudence thrown to the winds, nothing held back.

The more I work, the more I want to work.

I want to assassinate painting.

You can look at a picture for a week and never think of it again. You can also look at the picture for a second and think of it all your life.

A simple line painted with the brush can lead to freedom and happiness.

The works must be conceived with fire in the soul but executed with clinical coolness.
