I am prey to the accident.
If you can’t hurt yourself, hurt your painting.
There is no such thing as an accident.
Today’s mistake is tomorrow’s inspiration.
You learn patience by going mad, because work is halted as the layer dries.
Starting on something new means abandoning love you had for something else.
Alas! The other always finds out about the other.
Summon the perfect stroke the first time.
See it for the first time, on the third time.
Painting from every side and angle is old.
Viewing the painting from every side and angle produces something new.
I love blue.
It does not love me back.
So I turn it green.
I rarely plan out my paintings.
I paint better when I’m working at my job.
When I’m in the studio I can’t paint at all.
The answers, you would think, are in the paintings.
I stop painting just before the mystery is solved.
