A reason why painters and writers make good allies, is because painters like Irina Gretchanaia say things like: "imagine a flower in motion, in the wind, and a picture freezing it, and a brush continuing that motion onto a canvas."

"A flower is never just a flower, color is never just one color, and an image doesn't have to be still, because paint can be made to dance."

Edward Clark (1926-2019), the 1st painter credited with working on a shaped canvas, an innovation that influenced contemporary art through the 1950s and 1960s. He is known for his use of color and his powerful brush stroke on large- scale canvases.

We tell people sometimes: We’re like drug dealers, come into town and get everybody absolutely addicted to painting. It doesn’t take much to get you addicted.

'The Day Dream' (1880), by D.G. Rossetti, depicts Jane Morris. The stem of honeysuckle in her hand, a token of love in the Victorian era, may be an indication of the secret affair the artist was immersed in with her at the time.
