" "It is my intention, never to start with modeling directly [in the painting]. In my view this is the task of the sculptor. I am modeling 'the surfaces'. Not only concerning the volumes, but also concerning the flat hues, in which I try to achieve the most subtle distinctions. I don't care for external effects. It is always the high values of the surfaces which create the painting. I always get an unbelievable rich variety of facets. Not only the colors, which thereby preserve its power, but also the color-hues are clearly distinguished from each other by no other means than the brush-stroke. (translation from original Dutch, Fons Heijnsbroek, 2018)

(version in original Dutch / origineel citaat van Herman Kruyder:) ..[Ik] ga nu werken aan het schilderij 'De loopsche teef' heb daar al lang voorstudies van. Het kan eigenlijk beter 'Het gevecht daarom' heten, daar in de compositie in de achtergrond drie grote honden een grimmig gevecht leveren.
