Everybody thinks they know what art should be. But very few of them have the sense that is necessary to experience painting, that is the sense of sight, that sees colors and forms as living reality in the picture.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
The truth is that painting is all about scale; you use scale to create experience. A lot of artists have lost that ability. They don't even know that's something they should be doing.
Mostly people are ignorant, what is the language of painting. You know, they're ignorant. It is so difficult to make them aware, but time will teach them.
My dark little secret is that I don't actually believe many people in the art world have much feeling for art.
Art is essentially communication. It doesn't exist in a vacuum. That's why people make art, so other people can relate to it.
To be an artist is not a matter of making paintings or objects at all. What we are really dealing with is our state of consciousness and the shape of our perceptions.
It's true that there are people who live the idea of being an artist, as opposed to the idea of making art.
Art is the way people see things, and I think it's great when individuals can find in fashion something they truly believe is artistic.
Art is so subjective, and people can react however they want.
Art is not what you see, but what you make others see.
When you look at art made by other people, you see what you need to see in it.
