Our experience of any painting is always the latest line in a long conversation we've been having with painting. There's no way of looking at art as though you hadn't seen art before.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Painting is a coalescing of experience.
I think a painting should include more experience than simply intended statement.
The truth is that painting is all about scale; you use scale to create experience. A lot of artists have lost that ability. They don't even know that's something they should be doing.
When you look at art made by other people, you see what you need to see in it.
Painting, for me, is a dynamic balance and wholeness of life; it is mysterious and transcending, yet solid and real.
Until I began to learn to draw, I was never much interested in looking at art.
Painting is an illusion, a piece of magic, so what you see is not what you see.
I see things like they've never been seen before. Art is an accurate statement of the time in which it is made.
My paintings are not about what is seen. They are about what is known forever in the mind.
I am always rethinking how art is perceived and received, questioning our relationship to art. That's always been a constant.
