Drawing and color are by no means two different things. As you paint, you draw... When color is at its richest, form is at its fullest.

Right now a moment of time is fleeting by! Capture its reality in paint! To do that we must put all else out of our minds. We must become that moment, make ourselves a sensitive recording plate...Give the image of what we actually see, forgetting everything that has been seen before our time.
