If you study my paintings, there are no signs of human life.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
All still lifes are actually paintings of the world on the sixth day of creation, when God and the world were alone together, without man!
Art is not living. It is the use of living.
One must act in painting as in life, directly.
Art consists of reshaping life, but it does not create life nor cause life.
Art teaches nothing, except the significance of life.
Painting is a very difficult thing. It absorbs the whole man, body and soul, thus have I passed blindly many things which belong to real and political life.
My paintings are not about what is seen. They are about what is known forever in the mind.
In the social jungle of human existence, there is no feeling of being alive without a sense of identity.
Many artists use their own lives as a kind of case study to examine what it's like to be human.
Life is painting a picture, not doing a sum.
