Usually When Painters Use Photographs, They Enlarge

Photography Is Very Presumptuous. Photographers Are Always Photographing Other People's Lives - Something They Know Nothing About - And Drawing Great Inferences Into It.

Art Has To Address Eternal Issues.

Photography Does Deal With 'truth' Or A Kind Of Superficial Reality Better Than Any Of The Other Arts, But It Never Questions The Nature Of Reality - It Simply Reproduces Reality. And What Good Is That When The Things Of Real Value In Life Are Invisible?

I Think That The Photographer Must Completely Control His Picture And Bring To It All His Personality, And In This Area Most Photographs Never Transcend Being Just Snapshots. When A Great Photographer Does Infuse The Snapshot With His Personality And Vision, It Can Be Transformed Into Something Truly Moving And Beautiful.

Most Portraits Are Lies. People Are Rarely What They Appear To Be, Especially In Front Of A Camera. You Might Know Me Your Entire Lifetime And Never Reveal Yourself To Me. To Interpret Wrinkles As Character Is Insult Not Insight.
