Phantoms
Hope frequently paints over the top of already painted canvases, sometimes allowing parts of the earlier picture to remain visible. Other works are cut into, removing the vital features such as eyes or whole faces.

Famous quotes containing the word phantoms:
“Feign then what’s by a decent tact believed
And act that state is only so conceived,
And build an edifice of form
For house where phantoms may keep warm.”

When the phantoms are gone and the shaken realist
First sees reality. The mortal no
Has its emptiness and tragic expirations.”

“In the towns I am tracked by phantoms having weird detective ways—”
—Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
