"I work from what I see and feel not always putting in every detail but leaving something for the viewer’s imagination. Movement and contrast in the organization of special areas on a canvas or in a graphic composition is of prime interest to me, whether utilized in abstract arrangements or employed in subjective formations. In either case the object is to achieve syntheses of all elements which enter into the production of a work of art." - Catherine Cajandig
