The Painter's Obsession With His

The Only Way I Could Work Properly Was By Using The Absolute Maximum Of Observation And Concentration That I Could Possible Muster.

A Painter Must Think Of Everything He Sees As Being There Entirely For His Own Use And Pleasure.

The Aura Given Out By A Person Or Object Is As Much A Part Of Them As Their Flesh.

I Use The Gallery As If It Were A Doctor. I Come For Ideas And Help - To Look At Situations Within Painting, Rather Than Paintings.

The Aura Given Out By A Person Or Object Is As Much A Part Of Them As Their Flesh. The Effect That They Make In Space Is As Bound Up With Them As Might Be Their Colour Or Smell ... Therefore The Painter Must Be As Concerned With The Air Surrounding His Subject As With The Subject Itself. It Is Through Observation And Perception Of Atmosphere That He Can Register The Feeling That He Wishes His Painting To Give Out.
