Every Canvas Is A Journey All Its

We Would Sift Through Every Inch Of What It Was That Worked, Or If It Didn't, And Wonder What Was Effective In It, In Terms Of Paint, The Subject Matter, The Size, The Drawing.

A Really Good Picture Looks As If It's Happened At Once. It's An Immediate Image. For My Own Work, When A Picture Looks Labored And Overworked, And You Can Read In It As Well - She Did This And Then She Did That; There Is Something In It That Has Not Got To Do With Beautiful Art To Me. And I Usually Throw These Out, Though I Think Very Often It Takes Ten Of Those Over-labored Efforts To Produce One Really Beautiful Wrist Motion That Is Synchronized With Your Head And Heart, And You Have It, And Therefore It Looks As If It Were Born In A Minute.

Art Has A Will Of Its Own. It Has Nothing To Do With The Taste Of The Moment Or What's Expected Of You. That's A Formula For Dead Art, Or Fashionable Art.

I Don't Start With A Color Order, But Find The Colors As I Go.

I'd Rather Risk An Ugly Surprise Than Rely On Things I Know I Can Do.
