“You can stick with a few clear-cut values, which are stronger than a multitude of values and will obviously yield a stronger painting. But not all subjects or light conditions appear that way... be sensible and paint with values that are appropriate and faithful to your subject.” WayLightValuesClearCuttingConditionsSubjectsPaintingStrongerSticksPaintFaithfulAppropriateYieldSensibleMultitudes Author:Richard Schmid

“When I was in the NFL, whenever I got cut from a team I would do paintings of the players, they would pay me $4,000 to $5,000 to do their painting of their family, and that's how I survived until another team picked me up.” PayCuttingPlayerTeamPaintingNflSurvived Author:Terry Crews
“The paint has a skin to it, here taut and glossy, there wrinkled, abraded, scarred. It is pierced, abraded, scraped. A line drawn through it will go through half a dozen states, from the furry bloom of crusted charcoal to a blind furrow, cutting a channel in to soft paint below.” StatesLinesHalfCuttingPaintingSkinsBlindPaintDozenFurryCharcoal Author:Andrew Forge

“This is the essential distinction--even opposition--between the painting and the film: the painting is composed subjectively, thefilm objectively. However highly we rate the function of the scenario writer--in actual practice it is rated very low--we must recognize that the film is not transposed directly and freely from the mind by means of a docile medium like paint, but must be cut piece-meal out of the lumbering material of the actual visible world.” WorldMindMeanFilmPracticePiecesCuttingPaintingMaterialsEssentialsLowsFunctionPaintRateMediumsCinemaMealsVisibleDistinctionOppositionScenariosDocile Author:Herbert Read

“If you can make a little painting for the ears with a few words, well, I like words; I like cutting them up and finding different ways of saying the same thing... I get into a spell, and it all comes easy. I don't labor over it. I go inside the song, I think you make yourself an antenna for songs, and songs want to be around you. And then they bring other songs along, and then they're all sitting around, and they're drinkin' your beer, and they're sleeping on the floor. And they are using the phone, they're rude, thankless little f---ers.” IfsThinkingWayWantWellsLittlesDifferentSongEasySleepCuttingPaintingFindingsLaborEarsDrinkingPhonesBeerDifferent WaysOver ItSpellsRudeFew WordsThanklessAntenna Author:Tom Waits
“I got really excited about finding new ways of using video, and the immediacy is different, in a way, than painting and photography. The creativity comes with the editing.
