Points to Ponder

Self Portrait by Chuck Close

Two quotes for you today from the artist Chuck Close:

"I think problem solving is highly over-rated. Problem creation is more interesting. If you want to react personally you have to move away from other people's ideas. . . .and back yourself into your own corner where no one else's solutions apply and ask yourself to behave as an individual."

The greatest enemy for an artist is ease ... and repeating yourself once you get good at it."
