It teaches that all the prophets are one – that science and religion are the two great powers which must be balanced if man is to become mature. I feel my work has been influenced by these beliefs. I've tried to decentralize and interpenetrate so that all parts of a painting are of related value."

“An artist must find his expression closely linked to his individual experience or else follow in the old grooves resulting in lifeless forms.”
