I have been told that some of my photographs maybe indicate that I am a painter.

I did painting before I did photography.

When I am in my painting, I'm not aware of what I'm doing.

Do not think that I have stopped painting, for at any moment, I am liable to paint a good picture.

I photograph the things that I do not wish to paint, the things which already have an existence.

I paint what cannot be photographed, that which comes from the imagination or from dreams, or from an unconscious drive.

Ironically, my paintings don't photograph well.

Painting is almost like a sport. It's like this action thing. When I do it, I'm really not thinking. The paintings are like a diary that I might not want to read again.

I seldom have my stuff up unless I'm testing it. If I'm worrying about a painting, I put it up and see if I detest it quickly or slowly. Otherwise I have things by other artists.
