Denise Bezanson Art Quotes - (7 quotes)

Denise Bezanson - From the Commerce category:

Not everyone will be able to afford art, the market will tighten, but art sales will continue. It's not the end of the world. (Denise Bezanson)

Denise Bezanson - From the Criticism category:

It is so hard to tell people to their face they should take up accounting or knitting instead of painting. Maybe the right thing to say is, 'How about taking classes?' (Denise Bezanson)

Denise Bezanson - From the Painting category:

Ron looks like a fencer when he paints, and he attacks the canvas. He'd describe painting as a fight, a fight with composition, colours, and a fight with his own brain... Painting is a lonely sport. But what always gives us a chuckle is when his grandmother keeps asking, 'How's your hobby going, dear?' (Denise Bezanson)

Denise Bezanson - From the Pets category:

Truly dogs are special beings put on this earth for the benefit of mankind. (Denise Bezanson)

Denise Bezanson - From the Studio category:

Never apologize for your studio. (Denise Bezanson)

Denise Bezanson - From the Watercolours category:

Watercolours, when they are framed, are separated from the viewer by glass. With a canvas painting the viewer can look and see the brush strokes, texture and even touch one's painting if so inclined. The glass separates the viewer from the material... less satisfying visually... and yet they have to be protected. (Denise Bezanson)

Denise Bezanson - From the Work category:

Painting and working at the same time is difficult. The way to become a better painter is to paint, and paint, and paint, and paint some more. However, in order to get started in anything one often has to work overtime. (Denise Bezanson)
