Really, I do not know whether my paintings are surrealist or not, but I do know that they are the frankest expression of myself.
To paint is the most terrific thing that there is, but to do it well is very difficult.
My toys were those of a boy: skates, bicycles.
They thought I was a Surrealist, but I wasn't. I never painted dreams. I painted my own reality.
I leave you my portrait so that you will have my presence all the days and nights that I am away from you.
I never paint dreams or nightmares. I paint my own reality.
