"When standing in front of these paintings, don't allow either your over or undereducated bias lead the way. Accept the painting for what is there, not for what you expect to be there, would like to be there or think needs to be there. Read the painting through what is actually, literally there." Ed V

Every mark, every drip, smear, smudge etc. is calculated. Painting is after all, a language. These elements are its alphabet. In order to communicate through that language you need to learn its vocabulary and how to use it. Then you can successfully build a painting.
