Drawing was a constant in how I expressed myself.
I came to feel an artist might use anything - a dot, a line, the most conventional or unconventional symbol - t say what he wanted to say.
Drawing is a way of coming upon the connection between things, just like metaphor in poetry reconnects what has become separated.
I often painted fragments of things because it seemed to make my statement as well as or better than the whole could.
I always liked the idea that you can put something in you onto a canvas or a piece of paper and have it exist there and not inside you. It's a way to control things.
I thought art was a verb, rather than a noun.
Art is the accomplice of love.
There is no such thing as good painting about nothing.
Painting is a language of its own. You cannot interpret one form of expression with another form of expression.
