Al Feldstein - Painting

Painting

After he retired from Mad in 1984, Feldstein began painting again after his son, Mark Feldstein, gave him his first oil paint set since pre-Mad. He left Connecticut and relocated in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, where he spent three years painting the Teton Range and its wildlife.

Famous quotes containing the word painting:

    “When van Gogh paints sunflowers, he reveals, or achieves, the vivid relation between himself, as man, and the sunflower, as sunflower, at that quick moment of time. His painting does not represent the sunflower itself. We shall never know what the sunflower itself is. And the camera will visualize the sunflower far more perfectly than van Gogh can.”
    —D.H. (David Herbert)

    “One does a whole painting for one peach and people think just the opposite—that that particular peach is but a detail.”
    —Pablo Picasso (1881–1973)

    “To me, the whole process of being a brushstroke in someone else’s painting is a little difficult.”
    —Madonna [Madonna Louise Ciccione] (b. 1959)
