More quotes by Thomas S. Buechner
Do good work. Don't worry about expressing yourself. Figure out what you do well and make it better.
Thomas S. Buechner
I have never painted as well as I thought I should, so frustration came early.
Thomas S. Buechner
I'm interested in human vulnerability. We are alone, and my portraits reflect this quality. I don't want anything to get in the way of this feeling.
