Very quickly a painting is turned into a facsimile of itself when one becomes so familiar with with it that one recognizes it without looking at it.

I got so I was really just sick of sculpture.

I feel strong in my belief, based on my widely traveled collaborations, that a one-to-one contact through art contains potent peaceful powers, and is the most non-elitist way to share information, hopefully seducing us into creating mutual understandings for the benefit of all.

Sometimes I have taken photographs and just felt so excited that I could barely hold the camera steady, and the photo was boring.

I don't think any one person, whether artist or not, has been given permission by anyone to put the responsibility of the way things are on anyone else

I want my paintings to look like what's going on outside my window rather than what's inside my studio.

An empty canvas is full only if you want it to be full.
