“The advice I continually give to young writers is this, "Learn to paint pictures with words." Not just once upon a time, but ... In the long secret dust of ages, beneath a blue forgotten sky, where trade winds caress the sun bleached shores of unknown realms ... See, as much as there are words in poetry, there is a poetry in words. Use it, stay faithful to the path you have set your heart upon and follow it.” GivingWritingHeartLongUseAgeYoungSecretSunPathSkyAdviceWindBlueTradePaintForgottenDustFaithfulRealmsShoreOnce Upon A TimeCaressYoung Writers Author:Brian Jacques
“Weeks go by, and I dont paint until finally I cant stand it any longer. I get fed up. I almost dont want to talk about it, because I dont want to become self-conscious about it, but perhaps I create these little crises as a kind of a secret strategy to push myself.” WantKindLittlesSelfSecretWeekConsciousCrisisStrategyPaintFedsCantSelf ConsciousFed Up Author:Gerhard Richter
“Don't wish for "secrets" of the masters, either. There are none worth fooling with. They had no special mediums or paints, nor special brushes that made their work great.” MadeWishSecretSpecialMastersPaintMediumsBrushes Author:Richard Schmid
