Attempt what is not certain. Certainty may or may not come later. It may then be a valuable delusion.

I don't go into the studio with the idea of 'saying' something. What I do is face the blank canvas and put a few arbitrary marks on it that start me on some sort of dialogue.

All paintings start out of a mood, out of a relationship with things or people, out of a complete visual impression

Mistakes can't be erased, but they move you from your present position.

In a successful painting everything is integral - all the parts belong to the whole. If you remove an aspect or element you are removing its wholeness.

One wants to see the artifice of the thing as well as the subject.

If you get an image try to destroy it.

I would like the colors, their shapes and positions to be arrived at in response to and dictated by the condition of the total space at the time they are considered.

My freedom will be so much the greater and more meaningful, the more narrowly I limit my field of action and the more I surround myself with obstacles.

I came to mistrust my desire to explode the picture and supercharge it in some way… what is more important is a feeling of strength in reserve – tension beneath calm.

Don't be a Pollyanna!

Keep trying?I'd rather keep walking. I mean, whisky is whisky

Is that you giggling away to glory?Or is that just the flowers mingling with the bees and telling their story?

Don't hold it, shouldn't stop it. Let it come, let it flow. Let it reach the positivity, bring the happiness

I'm not a vain person, but I am human...

Motivation can't take you very far if you don't have the legs.

A soul isn't given for free. The races of men fight each other to the death for the honor of being recognized as human beings, with souls.

If thou wouldst preserve a sound body, use fasting and walking; if a healthful soul, fasting and praying. Walking exercises the body; praying exercises the soul; fasting cleanses both.

I'm never so sure as I was in my mid-20s.

A giant vulture with a girl hanging from its feet tends to attract attention.

One step closer to the end of the world. The one-two combo of corporate greed and organised religion apparently proved to be too much for reason, sanity and compassion.
