| Henri Matisse
A picture must possess a real power to generate light and for a long time now I've been conscious of expressing myself through light or rather in light. Derive happiness in oneself from a good day's work, from illuminating the fog that surrounds us. I have been no more than a medium, as it were. I wouldn't mind turning into a vermilion goldfish. There is nothing more difficult for a truly creative painter than to paint a rose, because before he can do so he has first to forget all the roses that were ever painted. Time extracts various values from a painter's work. When these values are exhausted the pictures are forgotten, and the more a picture has to give, the greater it is. |
