The real purpose of painting is to give pleasure.
There is never a question of what to paint but only how to paint.
I don’t abstract from anything.…I am involved with real space, the room itself, real light, and real surface.
What painting is, is exactly what people see.
My approach tends to be from experiments. I need the challenge. If I know how to do something well, there's no need to do it all the time because it becomes a little monotonous. So I like to find a challenge.
