I Would Tend To Say

I Decided That If My Work Contained What I Could Identify As A Likeness To Other Work, I Would Remove It.

I Think A Painting Should Include More Experience Than Simply Intended Statement.

Whatever I Do Seems Artificial And False, To Me.

That’s What Painting Does; It Organizes Vision In A Certain Way Or Suggests That Certain Things Be Paid Attention To And Certain Other Things Not Be Paid Attention To. It Functions In That Way To A Certain Extent In Our Civilization.

I’m Interested In Things Which Suggest The World Rather Than Express The Personality... The Most Conventional Thing, The Most Ordinary - It Seems To Me That Those Things Can Be Dealt With Without Having To Judge Them; They Seem To Me To Exist As Clear Facts, Not Involving Aesthetic Hierarchy.
