9 quotes
I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.
Inspiration exists, but it has to find you working.
Everything you can imagine is real.

The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place.
Colors, like features, follow the changes of the emotions.
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else.
