“I have no fear of photography as long as it cannot be used in heaven and in hell.”
Tip: press → for another quote, C to copy, S to share.
For as long as I can remember I have suffered from a deep feeling of anxiety which I have tried to express in my art.
Disease, insanity, and death were the angels that attended my cradle, and since then have followed me throughout my life.
I build a kind of wall between myself and t he model so that I can paint in peace behind it. Otherwise, she might say something that confuses and distracts me.
No longer shall I paint interiors with men reading and women knitting. I will paint living people who breathe and feel and suffer and love.
