“All paintings start out of a mood, out of a relationship with things or people, out of a complete visual impression. To call this expression abstract seems to me often to confuse the issue. Abstract means literally to draw from or separate. In this sense every artist is abstract . . . a realistic or non-objective approach makes no difference. The result is what counts.” —Richard Diebenkorn Richard Diebenkorn (American, 1922-1993). Interior with Doorway, 1962. Oil on canvas. Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, Philadelphia, Henry D.
