I'm Fed Up With Being Bossed Around.

I'm A Bit Claustrophobic, I Don't Like Crowds, I Live By The Sea - That's What I See When I Come Out Of My House In Bridlington.

I Had Always Planned To Make A Large Painting Of The Early Spring, When The First Leaves Are At The Bottom Of The Trees, And They Seem To Float In Space In A Wonderful Way. But The Arrival Of Spring Can't Be Done In One Picture.

It's Very British To Go About To See Something Unusual And Paint It.

Future Art That Is Based On Appearances Won't Look Like The Art That's Gone Before. Even Revivals Of A Period Are Not The Same.

I Think We Seem To Remember Things In Still Pictures. I Never Gave Up On Painting. When They Said Painting Was Dead, I Just Thought, Well, That's All About Photography, And Photography's Not That Interesting, And It's Changing Anyway.
