“Let’s suppose that the first colour I apply to the canvas is red. Now that action determines everything else that happens to the painting. After that I could put yellow on it, and some blue. Then I might perhaps obliterate the red with black, and the blue would perhaps become yellow, and the yellow purple, while the black changes to white. Obviously anything can happen. But the whole fascinating process began with that first red, and if I hadn’t begun with red, the whole painting would have been different. Is there a system, is there order, in this chaos?”
