An uninspiring canvas becomes a glamorous masterpiece when it is reattributed to a better-known artist.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
A great artist can paint a great picture on a small canvas.
I feel like there's too many paintings left unpainted that I just don't want to take the time away.
An empty canvas is a living wonder... far lovelier than certain pictures.
I put on the canvas whatever comes into my mind.
A work of art when placed in a gallery loses its charge, and becomes a portable object or surface disengaged from the outside world.
Being an artist is in part an act of rupture.
I think the definition of an artist is not necessarily tied into excellence or talent; an artist is somebody who, if you took away their freedom to make art, would lose their mind.
You just don't know when you get all the paint across the canvas how it will turn out. When you step back after you've finished, you say, 'This one is not so good. This one is good.'
I really enjoy squeezing out a big lump of paint directly onto the canvas and leaving it; fresh, immediate and sometimes shocking.
I love putting paint on canvas, getting lost in the process of painting.
