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

The working process is ideally freeing my mind.

The only thing that I could get with chance, and I never was able to use it, was that I would end up with something quite geometric or the spirit that I was interested in, indulging in, was gone.

Understanding is a form of blindness. Good art, I think, can never be understood.

You can't make either life or art, you have to work in the hole in between, which is undefined. That's what makes the adventure of painting.

I don't mess around with my subconscious

And also the new excitement and variety of ways that the abstract expressionists were applying paint. You could put it on as though it were colored air and it would be painting.
