I have no fear of making changes destroying the image etc. because the painting has a life of its own.

When I judge art I take my painting and put it next to a God made object like a tree or flower. If it clashes it is not art.

Life is painting a picture not doing a sum.

Not everybody trusts paintings but people believe photographs.

A writer should write with his eyes and a painter paint with his ears.

Painting is an infinitely minute part of my personality.

If we could but paint with the hand what we see with the eye.

Photograph: a picture painted by the sun without instruction in art.

Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.

Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot others transform a yellow spot into the sun.
