I Don't Paint Nature. I Am Nature.

With Experience It Seems To Be Possible To Control The Flow Of Paint, To A Great Extent, And I Don't Use - I Don't Use The Accident - 'cause I Deny The Accident... It's Quite Different From Working, Say, From A Still Life Where You Set Up Objects And Work Directly From Them. I Do Have A General Notion Of What I'm About And What The Results Will Be. I Approach Painting In The Same Sense As One Approaches Drawing, That Is, It's Direct.

In Response To The Question, 'how Do You Know When You're Finished?' Pollock Replied, 'how Do You Know When You're Finished Making Love?

Painting Is No Problem. The Problem Is What To Do When You're Not Painting.

My Paintings Do Not Have A Center, But Depend On The Same Amount Of Interest Throughout.

Something In Me Knows Where I’m Going, And - Well, Painting Is A State Of Being. ... Painting Is Self-discovery. Every Good Artist Paints What He Is.
