The only thing emanating from my pictures should be emotion.

We can see the light but we are still inside the tunnel, ... We have not been able to get to all the communities.

If you give a meaning to certain things in my paintings it may be very true, but it is not my idea to give this meaning. What ideas and conclusions you have got I obtained too, but instinctively, unconsciously. I make the painting for the painting. I paint the objects for what they are.

I paint what I think, not what I see.

When I paint I feel that all the artists of the past are behind me.

If there is something to steal, I steal it.

God is really only another artist. He invented the giraffe, the elephant and the cat. He has no real style, He just goes on trying other things.
