"I am an outsider when I paint.
I try to see the world and my marks and colors as new things. I attempt
to surprise myself in my speculation about the visual world through
these shapes, textures and manipulations of materials. I am always
juggling in a state of uncertain balance. If the results of my work
do combine discovery with new content then I am sure I have made a
picture." Jules Maidoff, 1992
