Good painting is like good cooking; it can be tasted, but not explained.

Painting is a coalescing of experience.

I think a painting should include more experience than simply intended statement.

Only the pure in heart can make a good soup.

Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.

There's a battle between what the cook thinks is high art and what the customer just wants to eat.

What's a soup kitchen?

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.

I believe in the ethos of the remix, like Andy Warhol making a painting of a Campbell's soup label.
