To me, a drop of oil paint or a xerographic dot are the same thing - they're all just language.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Painting is a language which cannot be replaced by another language. I don't know what to say about what I paint, really.
If I paint something, I don't want to have to explain what it is.
Abstract painting seeks to be a pure pictorial language, and thus attempts to escape the essential impurity of all languages: the recourse to signs or forms that have meanings shared by everyone.
Language is much closer to film than painting is.
The dot stands for 'detail' - always be paying attention to detail. I feel that people take you as serious as you take yourself. I spent a lot of time working on my craft, developing my style, and after I came out of my little incubation, I promised that I would pay attention to detail.
Painting is by nature a luminous language.
I used to paint a lot of oil and now I paint more mixed-media stuff.
Preliminary drawings or sketches in oil or pastel often have an immediacy and emotional appeal far greater than the final canvas.
Painting is an essentially concrete art and can only consist of the representation of real and existing things.
Painting is a language of its own. You cannot interpret one form of expression with another form of expression.
