Growth is the goal, and that goal is never complete—art must be in constant change.
The challenge for an artist is always to find your own way of doing something.
I'd never painted anything before. I was quite content to take other people's work since I didn't care anyway about the subject matter. I approached subject matter as a scoundrel. I had nothing to say about it whatsoever. I only wanted to make these exciting paintings.
I didn't want to deal in poetry. I got rid of that after a few months.
