“When I was growing up, I wanted to be a house painter like my father, but I was always screwing up when I went to work with him. I had a talent for knocking over paint and painting myself into corners. I also realized fairly quickly that painting bored me.” WantedFatherHouseGrowing UpGrowingTalentPaintingPaintCornersPainterBoredKnocking Author:Markus Zusak
“My father had wanted to be a commercial artist. He got as far as being a photographer in the army in World War II, but he was always a Sunday painter. At a certain point, he gave me his oil paints and I messed around with them, having no idea what I was doing.” WorldIdeasWarWantedArtistCertainFatherArmyPaintPhotographerOilPainterNo IdeaWar Of The WorldsSundayWorld War IiWorld War I Author:David Salle
