"Bums are the well-to-do of this day. They didn't have as far to fall." — Jackson Pollock

I'm very representational some of the time, and a little all of the time. But when you're painting out of your unconscious, figures are bound to emerge.

When I am in my painting, I'm not aware of what I'm doing.

Abstract painting is abstract. It confronts you. There was a reviewer a while back who wrote that my pictures didn't have any beginning or any end. He didn't mean it as a compliment, but it was.

I don't work from drawings. I don't make sketches and drawings and color sketches into a final painting.
