Most painters want recognition, especially by their peers. I achieved that a long time ago with TV. I don't need any more.

Most painters want recognition, especially by their peers.
A painting has a lot of advantages over other forms of communication. Unlike a movie, you don't have to put it into a machine and turn it on. It's just there every day. It's not limited by the element of time. It's a constant part of the home.
Real painters understand with a brush in their hand.
All painters are interested in photography to a certain extent.
Painters must speak through paint, not through words.
Painters have always needed a sort of veil upon which they can focus their attention. It's as though the more fully the consciousness is absorbed, the greater the freedom of the spirit behind.
With a painter's temperament, all that's needed are the means of expression sufficient to be intelligible to the wide public.
Painting constantly appeared to me as the one and only possible achievement.
All that is necessary to paint well is to be sincere.
Painters hate having to explain what their work is about. They always say, 'It's whatever you want it to be' - because I think that's their intention, to connect with each person's subconscious, and not to try and dictate.
