A painting is never finished - it simply stops in interesting places

I have sworn to die painting.

Color possesses me. I don't have to pursue it. It will possess me always, I know it. That is the meaning of this happy hour: Color and I are one. I am a painter.

For an impressionist to paint from nature is not to paint the subject, but to realize sensations

Painting from nature is not copying the object; it is realizing one's sensations.

When I judge art, I take my painting and put it next to a God made object like a tree or flower. If it clashes, it is not art.
