For being a bad student I was banished to the 'calaboose' - a bare cell with whitewashed walls and a bench to sit on. I liked it there, because I took along a sketch pad and drew incessantly I could have stayed there forever drawing without stopping

What I want is that my picture should evoke nothing but emotion.

Everything you can imagine is real.

Computers are useless. They can only give you answers.

Painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war.

Inspiration exists, but it has to find us working.

For a long time I limited myself to one colour - as a form of discipline.
