SEYMOUR SEGAL (1939 - )

"The studio is my sand box; the grains of sand are my colors. Brushes and chalks are my tools. Together we play, explore and improvise. I discover stuff I didn't know I knew. I paint to celebrate and to denounce. Painting is a ritual honoring my belief in creativity, in the here and now. The studio is my chapel.”

- Seymour Segal -
