Andrew Wyeth quotes about
expression design significant
My aim is to escape from the medium with which I work; to leave no residue of technical mannerisms to stand between my expression and the observer. To seek freedom through significant form and design rather than through the diversion of so-called free and accidental brush handling.
juicy painter
I am not a juicy painter.
superficial-things technique would-be
To be interested solely in technique would be a very superficial thing to me.
painting mood objects
I'm not at all interested in painting the object just as it is in nature. Certainly I'm much more interested in the mood of a thing than the truth of a thing.
deception foils pencils
My pencil is like a fencer's foil.
