“White paintings represent freedom for the viewer.”
“Abstract art takes; non-representational art gives.”
“To me, as a painter, what is important is the service to which the art is put.”
“They’re all untitled. Why restrict your imagination?”
“I’m just a simple painter. I don’t make prints.”
“Photos don’t lie…but they don’t tell the truth either.”
“I am not aware of any intention while painting with the exception of making a preconceived image function formally as a painting.”
