While I post this new painting, my son is at the Whitney working his way to the Jasper Johns retrospective. I am very happy for him, and I am very happy that a member of the family is actually getting to this exhibition. Whenever anybody asks, “Whose your favorite painter?” I usually answer, “Jasper Johns.” His work has had a profound influence upon my work—there’s no denying it. The hope, of course, is that by this stage of the game, you cannot really see any or many of the influences in my work, right?
I have to say that I really enjoyed making this new piece.
