“Art is the elimination of the unnecessary.”

I don’t believe in accidents. There are only encounters in history. There are no accidents.

Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.

There are painters who transform the sun to a yellow spot, but there are others who with the help of their art and their intelligence, transform a yellow spot into sun.

I don’t work from nature, I work like nature.

Nature does many things the way I do, but she hides them!

There is no abstract art. You must always start with something. Afterward you can remove all traces of reality.

In every photographer there was a painter, a true artist, awaiting expression.

I do not seek. I find.

In every photographer there was a painter, a true artist, awaiting expression.

I do not seek. I find.

You have to start somewhere. You can always erase reality later on.

Every act of creation is first an act of destruction.
