"Je compris peu à peu que ce que je peignais ressemblait à ce qui se passait en moi.
Je me surpris à imaginer, en regardant les tableaux terminés, qu'ils exprimaient de la colère, de la tranquilité ou de la violence puis de nouveau le calme.
Ma peinture devint affective, car j'y affichais sans pudeur sentiments et états d'âme." "I understood little by little that what I was painting resembled what was happening inside me.
I surprised myself by imagining that my finished paintings expressed anger, tranquility or violence and then calm again.
My painting became affective, because I shamelessly flaunted my feelings and moods there."
