When things become peculiar, frustrating and strange, I think it's a good time to start painting.

I paint from the top down. From the sky, then the mountains, then the hills, then the houses, then the cattle, and then the people.

I don't believe in making pencil sketches and then painting landscape in your studio. You must be right under the sky.

I did painting before I did photography.

I've always wanted to be able to paint the dawn.

I started painting when I was in high school.

I found I have to stay painting.

While in college, I used to get my ideas from photographs in 'National Geographic.' I started painting palm trees and motorboats.

Usually I am on a work for a long stretch, until a moment arrives when the air of the arbitrary vanishes, and the paint falls into positions that feel destined.
