When you start with a portrait and try to find pure form by abstracting more and more, you must end up with an egg.

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

One never knows what one is going to do. One starts a painting and then it becomes something quite different.

If only we could pull out our brain and use only our eyes.

Every act of creation is first an act of destruction.

If you're stuck in a painting, then stop and draw something else. Draw a flower and put your love into that flower. Then your powers will come back again.

When I haven't any blue I use red.
