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.

It took me 40 years to find out that painting is not sculpture.

I am the primitive of the method I have invented.

I could paint for a hundred years, a thousand years without stopping and I would still feel as though I knew nothing.

Nature is more depth than surface, the colours are the expressions on the surface of this depth; they rise up from the roots of the world.

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.

I've come to the conclusion that it's not really possible to help others.
