en When I am in a painting, I'm not aware of what I'm doing. It is only after a sort of 'get acquainted' period that I see what I have been about. I have no fears about making changes, destroying the image, etc, because the painting has a life of its own. I try to let it come through. It is only when I lose contact with the painting that the result is a mess. Otherwise there is pure harmony, an easy give and take, and the painting comes out well.

en We can actually prove it if the girl or the boy says, 'I was in his apartment or her apartment, there was a painting on the wall, we had sex three times .... That's easy.

Love, Work, and Faith -- these three alone are great.

  Ella Wheeler Wilcox
