Painting was a problem - you produce a thing, and then you sell it and get money, and that was quickly considered totally uncool.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Painting is damned difficult - you always think you've got it, but you haven't.
Painting is easy when you don't know how, but very difficult when you do.
A painting probably is the most shocking increase in value, from what it costs to make to what you sell it for.
Painting is a coalescing of experience.
Painting is something that requires a lot of time - it's not just one good idea out of art school.
You know, painting has given me a lot of freedom, because for some reason, I've been able to paint things, organize things in a way that I see that don't have any buffers or compromises in them.
I slowly dismantled the act of painting, to consider the possibility that no-thing ever really transcends its immediate environment.
I started painting when I was in high school.
The most difficult thing about painting is the self-discipline. When I finish a job, I give myself a few days, but then I have to discipline myself quite fiercely if I want to do some painting that's worthwhile. Otherwise, you're just doodling. It's much easier when you're just told what you have to do.
Painting constantly appeared to me as the one and only possible achievement.
