Famous quotes containing the word painting:

    “If people only knew as much about painting as I do, they would never buy my pictures.”
    —Edwin Landseer (1802–1873)

    “Talk to them about things they don’t know. Try to give them an inferiority complex. If the actress is beautiful, screw her. If she isn’t, present her with a valuable painting she will not understand. If they insist on being boring, kick their asses or twist their noses. And that’s about all there is to it.”
    —John Huston (1906–1987)

    “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)
