As a painter I shall never signify anything of importance. I feel it Absolutely.

I want to get to the point where people say of my work, that man feels deeply.

Art, although produced by man's hands, is something not created by hands alone, but something which wells up from a deeper source out of our soul.....My sympathies in the literary as well as in the artistic field are drawn most strongly to those artists in whom I see most the working of the soul.

Painting is a faith and that it brings with it the duty to pay no heed to public opinion - and that in it one conquers by perseverance and not by giving in.

My brushwork is quite unsystematic. I slam the paint on in all sorts of ways and leave each result to take care of itself.

How lovely yellow is! It stands for the sun.

I don't know anything with certainty, but seeing the stars makes me dream.
