My pictures are pegged on washing lines in my studio. One of these pictures were reworked and three are untouched. When I enter the room, the fresh ones are striking, the reworked one has turned into sentimental mush. Sometimes one needs to overwork and destroy to learn." The artist need not know very much; best of all let him work instinctively and paint as naturally as he breathes or walks. " – Emil Nolde
(The last one is a fiddly effete one, in case it isn't obvious.)
