I photograph the things that I do not wish to paint, the things which already have an existence.

Of course, there will always be those who look only at technique, who ask 'how', while others of a more curious nature will ask 'why'. Personally, I have always preferred inspiration to information.

An original is a creation motivated by desire. Any reproduction of an originals motivated be necessity. It is marvelous that we are the only species that creates gratuitous forms. To create is divine, to reproduce is human.

I paint what cannot be photographed, that which comes from the imagination or from dreams, or from an unconscious drive.
