I hate to paint portraits! I hope never to paint another portrait in my life. Portraiture may be all right for a man in his youth, but after forty I believe that manual dexterity deserts one, and, besides, the color-sense is less acute. Youth can better stand the exactions of a personal kind that are inseparable from portraiture. I have had enough of it.

John Singer Sargent (1856-1925)

I don't do commissioned portraits and I don't paint college presidents. I can't imagine what kind of ego it would take to want to have a 9-foot-high picture of yourself.

When I walk into my office, the other portraits that I look at in addition to (Thomas) Jefferson, the portraits of George Marshall, but especially Dean Acheson.

The portraits people will see in the show are from a phase of Dunn's career that most of his fans don't know about, ... He regularly did portraits of his friends, and a lot of figure painting as well. I think he mainly did it for recreation and didn't charge them for the work, or if he did it was very seldom.

This year I'm just going out and using my best stuff. I'm not trying to paint. I'm not a finesse pitcher. I'm not going to be the one who is going to paint here or paint there. I'm going to throw hard to a certain area and keep the ball down.

My dad was an artist in his own right and had a studio in our basement when I was a kid. My twin sister and I would always go down there to watch him paint. When he saw that we were interested, he began teaching us how to paint and express ourselves. It was then that I knew I wanted paint as a lifelong profession.

The problem with lead paint is that even if the paint was put down in 1920 and has been painted over six times, the 1920 paint is still there. When it chips off, the 1920 paint can chip off, too.

It is not merely the likeness which is precious... but the association and the sense of nearness involved in the thing... the fact of the very shadow of the person lying there fixed forever! It is the very sanctification of portraits I think -- and it is not at all monstrous in me to say that I would rather have such a memorial of one I dearly loved, than the noblest Artist's work ever produced.

But painters are different, ... It's paint, paint, paint. It's a mania. But choreographers can't do that. You have to have your dancers to do it.

Paul Taylor (1930-)
