Every Good Painter Paints What He Is.

Well, Method Is, It Seems To Me, A Natural Growth Out Of A Need, And From A Need The Modern Artist Has Found New Ways Of Expressing The World About Him. I Happen To Find Ways That Are Different From The Usual Techniques, Which Seems A Little Strange At The Moment, But I Don't Think There's Anything Very Different About It. I Paint On The Floor And This Isn't Unusual - The Orientals Did That.

I'm Very Representational Some Of The Time, And A Little All Of The Time. But When You're Painting Out Of Your Unconscious, Figures Are Bound To Emerge.

I've Had A Period Of Drawing On Canvas In Black - With Some Of My Early Images Coming Thru -, Think The Non-objectivists Will Find Them Disturbing - And The Kids Who Think It Simple To Splash A 'pollock' Out.

The Modern Artist Is Working With Space And Time, And Expressing His Feelings Rather Than Illustrating.

On The Floor I Am More At Ease. I Feel Nearer, More Part Of The Painting, Since This Way I Can Walk Around It, Work From The Four Sides And Literally Be In The Painting.
