“What interests me is all the stuff that goes into abstract and abstract-figurative art. Not the styles, but the stuff that, in various combinations, make the styles: mixing and matching painting methods and ideas.” ArtIdeasStuffInterestStylePaintingMethodVariousCombinationAbstractMixingMatchingFigurative Art Author:Ed Askew
“When I look at a wildlife or nature subject, I dont see the feathers in the wings, I just count the wings. I see exciting shapes, color combinations, patterns, textures, fascinating behavior and endless possibilities for making interesting pictures. I regard the picture as an ecosystem in which all the elements are interrelated, interdependent, perfectly balanced, without trimming or unutilized parts; and herein lies the lure of the painting; in a world of chaos, the picture is one small rectangle in which the artist can create an ordered universe.” WorldLooksLyingArtistUniverseInterestingSubjectsPossibilityColorPaintingShapesBehaviorElementsExcitingRegardWingsChaosPatternsEndlessCombinationFascinatingBalancedFeathersTextureWildlifeEcosystemsLureTrimmingEndless PossibilitiesRectangles Author:Charley Harper
“I encourage film students who are interested in cinematography to study sculpture, paintings, music, writing and other arts. Filmmaking consists of all the arts combined. Students are always asking me for advice, and I tell them that they have to be enthusiastic, because it's hard work. The only way to enjoy it is to be totally immersed. If you don't get involved on that level, it could be a very miserable job. I only have one regret about my career: I'm sorry that we are not making silent movies any more. That is the purest art form I can imagine.” IfsWayWritingArtI CanHardJobsFilmFormEnjoyLevelsMusicCareersStudyImagineAdviceStudentsPaintingRegretHard WorkInvolvedPureAskingSilentSorryMiserableCombinationCinemaMovieFilmmakingI'm SorrySculptureGet InvolvedEnthusiasticInvolvementCinematographySilent MoviesMusic WritingFilm Students Author:Vilmos Zsigmond
