I hope that we can bridge the worlds of appearances and of insights, and thus rescue art from triviality, from 'sensation' alone.
Burton Silverman
Alas, it is just a single image - an extended moment perhaps. Unlike a biography, a portrait cannot present the many differing moments that make up a personality.
Burton Silverman
The beginning of a painting is a very energized, exciting time, and it generates most of the energy I have. If I've gotten 75 per cent of it down, then it takes an effort to really get up that kind of energy to finish it in the same way it's begun.
Burton Silverman
I love an art which allows me to document my place in this mix... This is my past and my future. It has its own logic and finally, its own sense of fulfillment.
Burton Silverman
The self-portrait is an act of objectifying the self and in that regard is a unique form of portraiture.
Burton Silverman

Burton Silverman

Burton Silverman

Burton Silverman

Burton Silverman
I love the fact that there are more and more young people out there who still want to make a flat two-dimensional surface come alive with three dimensional magic.
Burton Silverman
Artists must literally go into a zone of intense seeing so the subjective and objective almost fuse together.
