Really, I do not know whether my paintings are surrealist or not, but I do know that they are the frankest expression of myself.

I don't know how to write love letters.

I am my own muse, the subject I know best.

The only thing I know is that I paint because I need to, and I paint whatever passes through my head without any other consideration.

Since my subjects have always been my sensations, my states of mind and the profound reactions that life has been producing in me, I have frequently objectified all this in figures of myself, which were the most sincere and real thing that I could do in order to express what I felt inside and outside of myself.

I paint flowers so they will not die.
