Lipstick Is The Red Badge

All My Life I Have Painted Pictures So That Certain People Would Drop Dead When They Looked At Them, But I Have Not Succeeded Yet. The Worst Painting Cant Hurt You, But A Bad Driver Can Kill You, A Bad Judge Can Send You To The Chair, A Bad Politician Can Ruin An Entire Country, That Is Why Even A Bad Painting Is Sacred.

Personally, I Have Always Preferred Inspiration To Information.

Each One Of Us, In His Timidity, Has A Limit Beyond Which He Is Outraged. It Is Inevitable That He Who By Concentrated Application Has Extended This Limit For Himself, Should Arouse The Resentment Of Those Who Have Accepted Conventions Which, Since Accepted By All, Require No Initiative Of Application. And This Resentment Generally Takes The Form Of Meaningless Laughter Or Of Criticism, If Not Persecution.

I Believe In The Relation Between Photography And Music; And Thats My Inspiration.

Speaking Of Nudes, I Have Always Had A Great Fondness For This Subject, Both In My Paintings And In My Photos, And I Must Admit, Not For Purely Artistic Reasons.
