Mine Is The Horny Hand Of Toil.

Every Time I Paint A Portrait I Lose A Friend.

I Don't Dig Beneath The Surface For Things That Don't Appear Before My Own Eyes.

I Do Not Judge, I Only Chronicle.

Cultivate An Ever-continuous Power Of Observation. Wherever You Are, Be Always Ready To Make Slight Notes Of Postures, Groups And Incidents.

No Small Dabs Of Colour - You Want Plenty Of Paint To Paint With.
