"I've
always liked paintings
that show how line is
really just a
difference of color.
It's an area which has
been explored quite a
bit in recent years,
but I think there is
still a lot to be
discovered.
Sometimes I feel like
Cabeza de Vaca or one
of those lean fantastic
Spaniards looking for
El Dorado or the Seven
Cities of Cebola. You
just keep on looking,
looking, following
hints and signs and
vague suggestions,
wandering around in all
directions, always
believing you're going
to find it. The main
thing is, you're in
uncharted territory
where any kind of
surprise may be
waiting. Artists
and explorers have a
lot in common. For
one thing, they are
both guided by their
instincts. The
most successful
explorers were the ones
with the most
cultivated intuitions,
and that's true with
artists too, I
believe."
