God may work in light, but we mortals work in pigment.

Art is a path on which we honour our world. Art may not be the only path, but it is a good path, even though at times a difficult one. As bearers of this honour, we artists do not need to simply render our world as we see it but as we might ourselves redesign it. As artists, one of our privileges is to invent.

While this may seem peculiar, the combo of work and distraction leads to levels of innovation not often generated by structured, focused thinking alone.

In painting you cover up your sins and everyone thinks you're naturally talented.

More than any other colour, red is loaded for action.

A drawing a day keeps the cobwebs away.

Which is better--feeling good or getting good?
