“Je veux faire en sorte que mes tableaux entrent en relation avec l’espace et la lumière, qu’ils offrent une expérience visuelle de la transparence à l’opacité.
Le décoratif dans l’art ne me gêne pas quand il est pleinement assumé.
Je dénie l’accidentel dans mes tableaux. En raison de mon expérience, je suis parfaitement capable de contrôler l’écoulement de la peinture.
Il n’y a pas de hasard parce que je suis conscient du choix des couleurs de la matière et du mouvement de mon corps.
Evidemment, c’est le résultat qui compte et la manière dont le peinture a été appliquée est secondaire. La technique est juste un moyen d’arriver à une déclaration.
L’art n’est décidément pas un long fleuve tranquille mais une formidable cause d’obstacles à surmonter, mais enfin, je ne veux plus chercher qu’une joie comparable à un bon match de CRICKET!”
