I am interested primarily in the vast field of experience and sensation which neither literature nor a purely plastic art deals with. - Edward Hopper

The technical obstacles of painting perhaps dictate this form. It derives also from the limitations of personality, and such may be the simplifications that I have attempted.

One must perhaps qualify this statement and say that seemingly opposite tendencies each contain some modicum of the other. I have tried to present my sensations in what is the most congenial and impressive form possible to me.

It's probably a reflection of my own, if I may say, loneliness. I don't know. It could be the whole human condition.
