‘When you paint, you told me, you need to let the ideas flow with the immediacy of a mountain stream; stopping, reconsidering, repainting – these are, for you, dishonest acts. Of course, this is in part attributable to the dynamic viscosities of acrylic paint, a medium not available to me in my lifetime. And yet, a sentiment I understand almost perfectly. For I always sought to portray the brevity and precariousness of our lives, how ephemeral and unpredictable its pleasures.’ – Jean-Honoré Fragonard
