“Is there in painting an effect which arises from the being together of repose and energy in the artist's mind? - can both repose and energy be seen in a painting's line and color, plane and volume, surface and depth, detail and composition? - and is the true effect of a good painting on the spectator one that makes at once for repose and energy, calmness and intensity, serenity and stir?” MindTogetherArtistEnergyLinesEffectsColorPaintingDepthDetailsSurfaceArisePlanesIntensitySerenityVolumeCompositionSpectatorsCalmnessReposeBeing Together Author:Eli Siegel

“Being an artist and being a teacher are two conflicting things. When I paint, my work manifests the unexpected... In teaching it's just the opposite.

“It is not enough to hold the line against the dark. It is your responsibility to lead into the light. People don't like the light--it reveals too much.

“My work is based on a tradition quite distinct from the Eckersberg tradition, a Nordic line of development that had never been clearly and consistently defined in the literature on art. This line is not a straight one; it has the strangest and most fascinating twists and curves, and includes such artists as Edvard Munch, Ernest Josephson, Hill, Hansen Jacobsen, Johannes Holbek, Jens Lund, and Emile Nolde. Not all of them equally well known.” WellsArtArtistLiteratureLinesKnownDevelopmentTraditionDefinedHillsFascinatingConsistentlyWell KnownCurvesTwistsNordic Author:Asger Jorn

So that page was sent back to me from the Code office, saying that the particular panel was too violent. I asked them what they meant, and they told me--I swear--"The puff of smoke is too big." Well, of course. So I had the artist make the smoke a little smaller, and the youth of America was saved.” WellsLittlesStoriesHandsBigsAmericaArtistCoursesLinesWrittenYouthParticularOfficeSixPagesWesternSavedViolentSmokeCodeComing OutSwearBulletsBarrelsTrajectoryPuffHorizontalShooterHand HoldingHorizontal Lines Author:Stan Lee
