"There were a couple of trees, a path and the sky. I began to paint to express in colors what nature prompted me. In hard work and with great excitement I gradually found the right colors and forms to express ehat my spiritual i demanded. I painted these color variations every day, always inpired by the respective atmosphere of nature and my spirits."
