Abstract Painting Is Abstract. It Confronts You.

With Experience It Seems To Be Possible To Control The Flow Of Paint, To A Great Extent, And I Don't Use - I Don't Use The Accident - 'cause I Deny The Accident... It's Quite Different From Working, Say, From A Still Life Where You Set Up Objects And Work Directly From Them. I Do Have A General Notion Of What I'm About And What The Results Will Be. I Approach Painting In The Same Sense As One Approaches Drawing, That Is, It's Direct.

Art Is Coming Face To Face With Yourself.

When I Am In My Painting, I'm Not Aware Of What I'm Doing.

You Can't Learn Techniques And Then Try To Become A Painter. Techniques Are A Result.
