“Where do images come from, ultimately? I suppose they appear in the soul, first, and I become aware of them. Maybe ‘seeing’ is just an illusion. I don’t really know. I don’t think I can ‘see’ the image fully until I make it. The process of painting is one of devotion to that image.”
Sam Francis quoted in J. Butterfield, Sam Francis, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Los Angeles, 1980, p. 14.
