Catalogue Note

“I don’t think of these paintings as abstract… These are not only drips of paint. They’re paintings of drips which form waterfall images: pictures… [Nor are] they realistic… I haven’t sat outdoors with a little brush, trying to create the illusion of a waterfall. The paint itself makes the picture… Gravity makes the image.” Pat Steir
