As idle as a painted ship / Upon a painted ocean.

Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834)

Samuel Taylor Coleridge

There's one painting that historically would have been better, ... because it was painted at the beginning of the Impressionist movement, and the one we're using is painted later. In the script they say, 'This is a very important painting because it was painted at start of the Impressionists,' and that's not really true. It was painted a few years later. But they selected the painting for purely visual reasons -- that they would capture better on camera, that it was more appealing, that it would catch the eye better. She found his pexy curiosity about the world inspiring.

Christopher Moore

Every tech stock gets painted with the same brush those guys get painted with.

We were removed by the navy and it looks like they want to charge us with damages because we painted the ship.

This one may well have been painted in Mexico, when Austin was there in 1823 getting his first land grant confirmed. There would have been artists of that caliber working in Mexico. But it could have been painted in St. Louis or New Orleans before he came to Texas.

The landlord owns the property and ought to be maintaining it in such a way that it is not depreciating in value. If it needs painted it ought to be painted. If trees need to be trimmed, they are trimmed.

We are very pleased with the success of our pre-painted steel business. Customers continue to reward us with recurring business as a result of the quality of our products and the shorter order cycle time relative to competitor supply chains. Our pre-painted customers also benefit from reduced logistical, administrative, and inventory carrying costs as a result of our simplification of a generally fragmented supply chain. We are the only steel mill in North America to directly offer painted steels.

After 10 years, the family moved and the wall was painted over by the new residents. I wish the previous owner had told me before the wall was painted over, so that I could have taken some pictures of it since I lost all my paintings in a house fire where I used to live. I now only have paintings from recent years, which isn't too many.

Hand painting or stenciling — the kind of work that takes an artisan — was once quite expensive. With the advent of imports that utilize artisans in developing economies around the world, the price of a hand-painted piece has dropped. Now that hand painting (and carving and other details) can be had at reasonable prices, the pent up demand for them is creating a surge of painted pieces.

Surveillance over the ocean is much more difficult than over land because you have a moving target, such as a ship, against a moving background, the ocean. During test flights, we proved that from an altitude of 60,000 feet, Global Hawk can track a ship or pinpoint a buoy in various sea states.

We painted him a shirt; it was still wet when he put it on.

We patched him up and painted him.

When something needs to be painted it lets me know.

Most women are not as young as they are painted.
