Category: Artist
Subcategory: American Artist
|  Right from the beginning, I always strived to capture everything I saw as completely as possible. | | The remarks about my reaching the age of Social Security and coming to the end of the road, they jolted me. And that was good. Because I sure as hell had no intention of just sitting around for the rest of my life. So I'd whip out the paints and really go to it. | | I'm the oldest antique in town. | | It wouldn't be right for me to clown around when I'm painting a president. | | I learned to draw everything except glamorous women. No matter how much I tried to make them look sexy, they always ended up looking silly... or like somebody's mother. | | I'll never have enough time to paint all the pictures I'd like to. | | I can take a lot of pats on the back. I love it when I get admiring letters from people. And, of course, I'd love it if the critics would notice me, too. |
