"Painting is the art which represents a phenomenon of feeling on a plane surface. The medium employed in painting, for both background and line, is color … Today photography reproduces an object exactly. Painting, liberated from the need to do so, regains freedom of action … The work of art is born from the total translation of personal ideas in execution."
