To model yourself after Steve Jobs is like, 'I'd like to paint like Picasso, what should I do? Should I use more red?'
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
You have to be creative. It's the basics. You can't be Picasso unless you know how to draw a real face; then you can turn it upside down.
The more I paint the more I like everything.
Work at the same time on sky, water, branches, ground, keeping everything going on an equal basis... Don't be afraid of putting on colour... Paint generously and unhesitatingly, for it is best not to lose the first impression.
I want paint to work as flesh.
When I look at a body it gives me choice of what to put in a painting, what will suit me and what won't.
I paint mostly from real life. It has to start with that. Real people, real street scenes, behind the curtain scenes, live models, paintings, photographs, staged setups, architecture, grids, graphic design. Whatever it takes to make it work.
I paint people not because of what they are like, not exactly in spite of what they are like, but how they happen to be.
I thought it would be very nice to become Picasso or Rembrandt, or a van Gogh.
I paint with shapes.
Painting is a nail to which I fasten my ideas.
