I Had No Idea Love Would Catch

I Think Of My Peace Paintings As One Long Poem, With Each Painting Being A Single Stanza.

I've Always Been Fascinated By Numbers. Before I Was Seventeen Years Old, I Had Lived In Twenty-one Different Houses. In My Mind, Each Of Those Houses Had A Number.

Pop Is Everything Art Hasn't Been For The Last Two Decades...it Springs Newborn Out Of A Boredom With The Finality And Over-saturation Of Abstract-expressionism, Which, By Its Own Esthetic Logic, Is The End Of Art, The Glorious Pinnacle Of The Long Pyramidal Creative Process. Stifled By This Rarefied Atmosphere, Some Young Painters Turn Back To Some Less Exalted Things Like Coca-cola, Ice-cream Sodas, Big Hamburgers, Super-markets And 'eat' Signs. They Are Eye-hungry; They Pop.

Some People Like To Paint Trees. I Like To Paint Love. I Find It More Meaningful Than Painting Trees.

I Never Had The Exposure To Techniques And So Forth That Children Have Today With Art Workshops, But I Always Had Crayons And Pencils And Still Have Work Going Right Back To When I Was Five Or Six Years Old
