“A TV show where all of the characters are trying to figure out what's going on, and the suspense of that, fits my [voice] really well. You feel their frustration, anger and fear, and then, when the reveal happens, their sense of dread or horror, or whatever it is, and I like to paint with those colors.” FeelsTryingWellsCharacterShowsHappensVoiceFiguresColorTvsFitHorrorPaintSuspenseFrustrationDreadTv ShowsAnger And Fear Author:M.

“The artist who paints the emotions creates an enclosed world... the picture... which, like a book, has the same interest no matter where it happens to be. Such an artist, we may imagine, spends a great deal of time doing nothing but looking, both around him and inside him.” WorldMayBookMatterHappensArtistInterestDealsEmotionImaginePaintDoing Nothing Author:Pierre Bonnard

“Well, method is, it seems to me, a natural growth out of a need, and from a need the modern artist has found new ways of expressing the world about him. I happen to find ways that are different from the usual techniques, which seems a little strange at the moment, but I don't think there's anything very different about it. I paint on the floor and this isn't unusual - the Orientals did that.” ThinkingWorldWayNeedsWellsLittlesDifferentMomentsSeemsHappensArtistFoundGrowthNaturalModernStrangeMethodPaintTechniqueUnusualUsualNew WaysModern Art Author:Jackson Pollock

“Passion is what convinced armies that had no chance to win - it's believing that something can happen. Reality is what you make it to be. And when you're the only one who can see the way the future is going to be, you can be the tool that bends, rips, shapes and paints the future the way you want it to be.
