Success is a worn down pencil.

If I declare it to be so, then this is a portrait.

I prefer images that are less specific, so there is room for everyone's imagination.

By the time you establish your priorities, there really isn't any fun or need to interest yourself in what you're doing. And this I find disastrous.

There was something about the self-confession and self-confusion of Abstract expressionism - as though the man and the work were the same - that personally always put me off because at that time my focus was in the opposite direction.

There was a whole language that I could never make function for myself in relationship to painting, and that was attitudes like tortured, struggle, pain.

You wait until life is in the frame, then you have the permission to click. I like the adventure of waiting until the whole frame is full.
