If painting is no longer needed, it seems a pity that some of us are born into the world with such a passion for line and color.

It changed my life. I saw art then as I wanted to see it.

There's only one thing in life for a woman; it's to be a mother... A woman artist must be... capable of making primary sacrifices.

Women should be someone and not something.

I think that if you shake the tree, you ought to be around when the fruit falls to pick it up.

I have touched with a sense of art some people-they felt the love and the life. Can you offer me anything to compare to that joy for an artist?

I am independent! I can live alone and I love to work.
