Quotes
"You know, I get so many letters and stuff, people that are - they never believed that they could paint. And you wouldn't believe some of the pictures they send me of their paintings. My gosh! It really makes it all worthwhile."
“You know that this piece of canvas is your world, and in your world, you can do anything that your heart desires. On this piece of canvas, you have absolute and total freedom, that's what makes it so fantastic.”
"just beat the Devil out" (of the paintbrush)
