“When I am in a painting, I’m not aware of what I’m doing. It is only after a sort of ‘get acquainted’ period that I see what I have been about. I have no fears about making changes, destroying the image, etc, because the painting has a life of its own. I try to let it come through. It is only when I lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess. Otherwise there is pure harmony, an easy give and take, and the painting comes out well.”
J. Pollock
“The modern artist… is working and expressing an inner world – in other words – expressing the energy, the motion, and other inner forces”.
J. Pollock
“Painting is self discovery. Every good painter paints what he is.”
J. Pollock
