Art poetry

"The reason for my painting large canvases is that I want to be intimate and human. To paint a small picture is to place yourself outside your experience, to look upon an experience as a stereopticon view or with a reducing glass. However you paint the larger picture, you are in it. Pictures must be miraculous: the instant one is completed, the intimacy between the creation and the creator is ended". Mark Rothko

"Some people are artists. Some, themselves, are art." Artsy quote.

"I find it amusing that we're all pretending to be normal when we could be insanely interesting instead." - Atlas
