Odilon Redon - Quote
"I have often, as an exercise and as a sustenance, painted before an object down to the smallest accidents of its visual appearance; but the day left me sad and with an unsatiated thirst. The next day I let the other source run, that of imagination, through the recollection of the forms and I was then reassured and appeased."

Cy Twombly
Cy Twombly quote: My line is childlike but not childish. It is very difficult to fake.. to get that quality you need to project yourself into the child's line. It has to be felt.

The energy of Elizabeth Murray
In a 1991 interview Murray, stated, "When you walk out of the studio, and you walk down the street that's where you find art. Or you find it at home, right in front of you. I paint about things that surround me-things that I pick up and handle everyday. That's what art is. Art is an epiphany in a coffee cup. "
