I Paint Life As I Would Like

I Know Of No Painless Process For Giving Birth To A Picture Idea. When I Must Produce, I Retire To A Quiet Room With A Supply Of Cheap Paper And Sharp Pencils; My Brain Knows It's Going To Take A Beating.

I'm The Oldest Antique In Town.

Here In New England, The Character Is Strong And Unshakable.

I Didn't Know What To Expect From A Famous Movie Star; Maybe That He'd Be Sort Of Stuck-up, You Know. But Not Gary Cooper. He Horsed Around So Much... That I Had A Hard Time Painting Him.

My Best Efforts Were Some Modern Things That Looked Like Very Lousy Matisses. Thank God I Had The Sense To Realize They Were Lousy, And Leave Paris.
