I don't really have studios. I wander around around people's attics, out in fields, in cellars, anyplace I find that invites me.
From Andrew Wyeth
It's a moment that I'm after, a fleeting moment, but not a frozen moment.
I prefer winter and fall, when you feel the bone structure of the landscape. Something waits beneath it; the whole story doesn't show.
Artists today think of everything they do as a work of art. It is important to forget about what you are doing - then a work of art may happen.
I dream a lot. I do more painting when I'm not painting. It's in the subconscious.
I search for the realness, the real feeling of a subject, all the texture around it... I always want to see the third dimension of something... I want to come alive with the object.
It's all in how you arrange the thing... the careful balance of the design is the motion.
I'm a secretive bastard. I would never let anybody watch me painting... it would be like somebody watching you have sex - painting is that personal to me.
One's art goes as far and as deep as one's love goes.
If you clean it up, get analytical, all the subtle joy and emotion you felt in the first place goes flying out the window.
