Learning the art of painting is not an easy task. It takes a great deal of intelligence, keen analysis, study and practice Picture Quote #1

The art that I make and that I see others make confirms the miracle of being alive. Almost every day I live in a state of exaltation. The art of painting is to me sacred. It is central to all the other visual arts. This art is in a constant state of renewal Picture Quote #1

Though colour may appear at first a part of painting merely mechanical, yet it still has its rules, and those grounded upon that presiding principle which regulates both the great and the little in the study of a painter Picture Quote #1
