Tags: Painter, Pleasure, SeesA painter's tastes must grow out of what so obsesses him in life that he never has to ask himself what it is suitable for him to do in art.
Tags: Art, Him, LifeThe aura given out by a person or object is as much a part of them as their flesh.
Tags: Aura, Flesh, ObjectFull, saturated colours have an emotional significance I want to avoid.
Tags: Avoid, Emotional, FullThe longer you look at an object, the more abstract it becomes, and, ironically, the more real.
Tags: Longer, Object, RealThe painter's obsession with his subject is all that he needs to drive him to work.
Tags: Him, Obsession, WorkI remember Francis Bacon would say that he felt he was giving art what he thought it previously lacked. With me, it's what Yeats called the fascination with what's difficult. I'm only trying to do what I can't do.
Tags: Art, Giving, TryingAs far as I am concerned the paint is the person. I want it to work for me just as flesh does.
Tags: Concerned, Far, WorkI paint people not because of what they are like, not exactly in spite of what they are like, but how they happen to be.
Tags: Happen, Paint, SpiteI would wish my portraits to be of the people, not like them. Not having a look of the sitter, being them.
Tags: Portraits, Sitter, WishThe model should only serve the very private function for the painter of providing the starting point for his excitement.
Tags: Excitement, Point, PrivateThe painter must give a completely free rein to any feeling or sensations he may have and reject nothing to which he is naturally drawn.
Tags: Feeling, Give, MayThe paintings that really excite me have an erotic element or side to them irrespective of subject matter.
Tags: Matter, Side, SubjectWhen I look at a body it gives me choice of what to put in a painting, what will suit me and what won't.
