Art Comes From Joy And Pain...but Mostly

When I Paint A Person, His Enemies Always Find The Portrait A Good Likeness.

Some Colors Reconcile Themselves To One Another, Others Just Clash.

I Build A Kind Of Wall Between Myself And T He Model So That I Can Paint In Peace Behind It. Otherwise, She Might Say Something That Confuses And Distracts Me.

A Work Of Art Comes Only From Inside A Human Being.

The Viewers Must Come To Understand The Sacredness Of Painting, So They Will Remove Their Hats As If They Were In Church.
