I don't like finished things, because finished is over, dead.

There are quite a lot of people asking for a painting so I'm not able to fulfil all their wishes. And this gives me a lot of freedom, because if I cannot please them at all I don't have to start to try.

I always have the idea in mind that when Botticelli was an old man nobody cared about him because he was out of fashion. Imagine, Botticelli was out of fashion!

It is always better to make your own mistakes and not someone else's.

There must be an open space in the paintings - an entry space for the viewer, or even for me. Just white space where you can get into it.

In a way, my paintings are like my children. They have many possibilities in life. You tell them, 'I believe that you're good and I trust that wherever you are and whatever you do, you will do it right.
