"I love color. Color is what it's all about." I replied.

"Why do you paint?" she asked yet again.

I said "Dare I use that cliched word that has so often been spoken, that word 'spiritual'? Painting is a spiritual experience, that is why I'm called a 'process' painter. The process of painting for me is a spiritual experience."
