The Artist Works With A Concentration Of

All Good Art Has Contained Both Abstract And Surrealist Elements, Just As It Has Contained Both Classical And Romantic Elements - Order And Surprise, Intellect And Imagination, Conscious And Unconscious. Both Sides Of The Artist's Personality Must Play Their Part.

The Artist Works With A Concentration Of His Whole Personality, And The Conscious Part Of It Resolves Conflicts, Organized Memories, And Prevents Him From Trying To Walk In Two Directions At The Same Time.

Abstraction Means Getting Away From A Visual Interpretation But Nearer To An Emotional One.

Never Think Of The Surface Except As An Extension Of A Volume.

One Mustn't Let Technique Be The Consciously Important Thing. It Should Be At The Service Of Expressing The Form.
