ART QUOTES OF THE DAY

I have decided to post art quotes, when I haven't any new work to post.    Today  I was looking at quotes regarding accidents in paintings.   My Rhythm of the Universe series began as an accident. It began with me putting down layer and layers, experiementing with as many different things I could come up with.    Surprisingly, circles began emerging, and alas, my new series!  So - a couple of quote, I'll begin with George Carlin, an homage to a great comedian.

"Doesn't "expecting the unexpected" make the unexpected expected?"  George Carlin

"All painting is an accident.   But it's also not an accident, because one must select what part of the accident one chooses to preserve."   Francis Bacon
