I am more a friend of art than a producer of painting.

Everything is about to disappear. You've got to hurry up if you still want to see things.

Design and color are not distinct and separate. As one paints, one draws. The more the colors harmonize, the more the design takes form. When color is at it's richest, form is at its fullest.

There is no model, there is only color.

We must not be content to memorize the beautiful formulas of our illustrious predecessors. Let us go out and study beautiful nature.

I have sworn to die painting.

There is no light painting or dark painting, but simply relations of tones.
