Art means something very rare, an extraordinary achievement.

I haven't the slightest idea what art is, but to be a painter is something of which you have to prove.

Common objects become strangely uncommon when removed from their context and ordinary ways of being seen.

Discipline is not a restriction but an aid to freedom.

Every paint-stroke takes you farther and farther away from your initial concept. And you have to be thankful for that.

My sin as a painter is that I just want to paint anything I want to paint - and repaint.
