Somehow don't be bored, but if you must, use it in action. Use its destructive potential.

Do search, but in order to find other than what is searched for.

My freedom consists in my moving about within the narrow frame that I have assigned myself for each one of my undertakings.

All paintings start out of a mood, out of a relationship with things or people, out of a complete visual impression. To call this expression abstract seems to me often to confuse the issue. Abstract means literally to draw from or separate. In this sense every artist is abstract . . . a realistic or non-objective approach makes no difference. The result is what counts.

I don't go into the studio with the idea of 'saying' something. What I do is face the blank canvas and put a few arbitrary marks on it that start me on some sort of dialogue.

I want painting to be difficult to do.
