AN  ARTIST 
AS AN
OLD MAN

Quote for Today

"What I wanted to do was to paint sunlight on the side of a house."

Edward Hopper. Recalled on his death to mean, "I want to paint the human soul." Newsweek, May 29, 1967


Questions: What did you try to do in your life?  What did you see?  Where are your works hanging?  Will people they see them after you die?  If you had a museum, what would a walk through be like?  What would be the big work of art they would stop to ponder?
