"Before launching the brush on the canvas, I let myself be influenced by various elements: the memory of the color of a sky, that of the reflection of a light on a rock ... I must feel in me the overwhelming power of various elements, visible or not ... Then in the calm, often at night, I find the energy for the fight with the canvas. "
