When the subject is strong, simplicity is the

Colour is my day-long obsession, joy and torment.-Claude Monet

How important are the visual arts in our society?

My contribution to the world is my ability to
draw. I will draw as much as I can for as many
people as I can for as long as I can. Drawing is
still basically the same as it has been since
prehistoric times. It brings together man and the
world. It lives through magic. -Keith Haring

but very difficult for those that do!"~ Edgar Degas

in interesting places." ~ Paul Gardner

"When my daughter was about seven years old, she
asked me one day what I did at work. I told her I
worked at the college- that my job was to teach
people how to draw. She stared back at me,
incredulous, and said, "You mean they forget?" ~ Howard Ikemoto

Art is everywhere, except it has to pass through
a creative mind." ~ Louise Nevelson

process of working." ~ Louise Nevelson

"One day seven years ago I found myself saying to
myself -- I can't live where I want to -- I can't
go where I want to go--I can't do what I want to
-- I can't even say what I want to --....I
decided I was a very stupid fool not to at least
paint as I wanted to." ~ Georgia O'Keeffe, 1923

"Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
"The artist is the antenna of the race." ~ Ezra Pound (from the book, "Art & Physics" by Leonard Schlain)

"I want to thank anyone who spends part of their
day creating, I don't care if it's a book, a film, a painting, a dance,a piece of theater, a piece of music--anybody who spends part of their day sharing their experience with us--I think this world would be unlivable without art and I thank you." ~ Steve Soderbergh (winner of the 2001 Academy Award for Directing "Traffic." He also directed "Erin Brockovich.")

"I often think the night is more alive and more
richly colored than the day." -Vincent Van Gogh
