I came to realize and believe that a painting must be a revelation both to the artist and the viewer, not an imitation or a duplication of nature....the work progresses by impulses, one color calling after another, a round shape demanding its opposite....The form and content come straight out of automatism, unconscious impulses and fantasies.
