“To draw does not simply mean to reproduce contours; the drawing does not simply consist in the idea: the drawing is even the expression, the interior form, the plan, the model. Look what remains after that! The drawing is three fourths and a half of what constitutes painting.

Let me handle the matter.".” IfsTryingHumansHeartHas BeensMatterFacesPlansDoorsMessagesResourcesLet MeHandleYour FaceInadequateCalculationsHuman ResourcesProps Author:Catherine Marshall
“Back then, it's weird, because I wasn't consciously thinking about it and I think that's why the doors opened and I had the opportunity. It was a big shift and I realized that you can plan and think your life is going somewhere, but you also have to surrender to what opportunities present themselves and really go for those as well.” ThinkingWellsBigsLife IsOpportunityPlansDoorsI RealizedSurrender Author:Jillian Hervey
