I remember so well my father's complete concentration when he went to the studio. Everything he did, every movement he made, he did with complete concentration. Then, after he had finished work, he would go to the beach or whatever, and then he would enjoy play and forget about his work.

My mother tells me that I was a very busy, curious child and that I quite often challenged my father when I was little, which she thought was rather good for him!

I think working with the primal elements of fire and earth appealed greatly to my father because of the almost magical results.
