#ffff9f foreground

For me, painting is a way to forget life. It is a cry in the night, a strangled laugh.

Georges Rouault

#ffff9f background

It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to, the feeling for the things themselves, for reality, is more important than the feeling for pictures.

Vincent Van Gogh

There's no retirement for an artist, it's your way of living so there's no end to it.
