The scope of art is practically boundless it does not begin and end with the painting of pictures and the modeling of statues where there is room for workmanship there is room for it.
Lewis Foreman Day
Image
Even if you have $20,000 to buy an item, you still try to get a good price at antique stores. I collect furniture, rugs, paintings, frames. It's my hobby to go around to shops and markets.
Ursula Andress
Image
Success is the 'discovery,' the creation of an idea, pulling something out of the depths of your mind that never existed before. To further complete that success, a painting is made as a communication tool for that idea.
Jim Rowe
Image
Music is like painting in sound. You take it into your inner heart and never lose it. It's eternally mysterious.
Van Cliburn
Image
When you are older, you realise that everything else is just nothing compared to painting and drawing.
David Hockney
Image
I think the worst lie I ever told was, because my last name is Goth, I used to tell kids at school that I used to be related to 'Van Gogh' and when I turned 18, I would inherit all the fortune from the sunflower painting.
Mia Goth
Image
I studied all about Gauguin. He was a banker. He was a banker who - he used to paint on Sundays. And one day he hated himself for painting on Sundays.
Anthony Quinn

I have been painting models with black and brown skin only for the past years. So, I did already have this experience, this is how I have come to the paintings I do now.

I'm doing quite a lot of painting on stones - little funny fish and animals.
PJ Harvey
Image
Usually I am on a work for a long stretch, until a moment arrives when the air of the arbitrary vanishes, and the paint falls into positions that feel destined.
Philip Guston
Image
The collaboration which sometimes follows is seldom based on good will: usually on desire, rage, fear, pity or longing. The modern illusion concerning painting (which post-modernism has done nothing to correct) is that the artist is the creator. Rather he is a reciever. What seems like creaton is the act of giving form to what he has recieved.
John Berger
Image
Painting has to get back to its original goal, examining the inner lives of human beings.
Pierre Bonnard
Image
Everybody has a direct view of the person behind the art, so there is going to be a certain amount of awareness of who is making songs. But I like paintings where you can see the brush-strokes.
Jeffrey Lewis
Image
Paintings are but research and experiment. I never do a painting as a work of art. All of them are researches. I search constantly and there is a logical sequence in all this research.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I was attracted to a lot of different art forms - dancing, painting. But there's something about music that people hold so close. It's such a powerful art form, and that's why I live for it.
Ani DiFranco
Image
Every form is a base for color, every color is the attribute of a form.
Victor Vasarely
Image
Artists raise their kids differently. We communicate to the point where we probably annoy our children. We have art around the house, we have books, we go to plays, we talk. Our focus is art and painting and dress-up and singing. It's what we love. So I think you can see how artists in some way raise other artists.
Angelina Jolie

This is something that I dream about: to live films, to arrive at the point at which one can live for films, can think cinematographically, eat cinematographically, sleep cinematographically, as a poet, a painter, lives, eats, sleeps painting.
Bernardo Bertolucci
Image
Painting is a kind of call and response. During the act of painting one is listening, paying attention to a self, a voice simultaneously recognizable and foreign.
Squeak Carnwath

Music enriches people's lives in the same way paintings and literature do. Everybody deserves that.
Victoria Wood

I have a publishing company of books by me and books of others. It drew people to poetry readings and photo exhibitions and painting exhibitions that I've been doing for years before that.
Viggo Mortensen
Image
In a movie, you're raw material, just a hue of some color and the director makes the painting.
Viggo Mortensen
Image
Why spend the afternoon making a meal that will be gone in an hour, she'd ask us, when in the same amount of time, I can do a painting that will last forever?
Jeannette Walls
Image
I think being an artist is having the courage to be original. Many great artists, including Picasso, have all been influenced by the great master paintings... And then finally, they leap, they take off... they become themselves. Then it looks like they just came out of nowhere. Just like 'Pow!'
