We never really perceive what color really is, as it physically is. This fact makes color the most relative medium in art.

If you don't do it my way, I suggest you commit suicide.

If one says “Red” (the name of a color) and there are 50 people listening, it can be expected that there will be 50 reds in their minds. And one can be sure that all these reds will be very different.

It was my family that wanted me to be a teacher. That was safe, you see. To be a painter was terrible.

And I started with this: I have not painted at all my childhood. In fact, I never painted. But I helped my father who was a house painter and decorative painter. He made stage sets, he made glass paintings, he made everything.

I prefer to see with closed eyes.
