I Think Of My Peace Paintings As

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.

I Was The Least Pop Of All The Pop Artists.

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

My Goal Is That Love Should Cover The World.

Pop Art Is The American Dream, Optimistic, Generous, And Naive!
