Full, Saturated Colours Have An Emotional Significance

I Paint People, Not Because Of What They Are Like, Not Exactly In Spite Of What They Are Like, But How They Happen To Be.

I Have A Hatred Of Habit And Routine. And What Dogs Love Is Just That. They Like Regular Everything, And I Don't Have Regular Anything. I Have A Timetable, But No Routine.

As Far As I Am Concerned The Paint Is The Person. I Want It To Work For Me Just As Flesh Does

Full, Saturated Colours Have An Emotional Significance I Want To Avoid.

My Work Is Purely Autobiographical... It Is About Myself And My Surroundings.
