I try to paint what I have found and not what I look for. In art, intentions are of little importance.

If all the ways I have been along were marked on a map and joined up with a line, it might represent a minotaur.

I want to know one thing, what is color?

I always forbade everyone to clean my studios, dust them, not only for fear they would disturb my things, but especially because I always counted on the protection of dust. It's my ally. I always let it settle where it likes. It's like a layer of protection.

We have a lot of reasons but only one real one.

One does a whole painting for one peach and people think just the opposite - that particular peach is but a detail.

To arrive at abstraction, it is always necessary to begin with a concrete reality.
