“I've been collecting photos for a long time, I mean since I started making money. But what you have had to go through to find a good photo is like a needle in the haystack sometimes.

It's a very ancient model that just hasn't caught up with the times.” MeanLongSometimesNextEasyProcessLong TimeModelsAncientCaughtMaking MoneyCaught UpCollectingGalleryNeedlesGood Photo Author:Guy Oseary
“So long as painting deals with objective nature, it is an impure art, for recognizability precludes the highest aesthetic emotion. All painting, ancient or modern, moves us aesthetically only in so far as it possesses a force over and beyond its aspect.” LongArtMovingForceNatureDealsEmotionModernPaintingHighestAspectAncientObjectivesAesthetic Author:Lawren Harris
