"Since the model he so faithfully copies is not going to be hung up next to the picture... it is of no interest whether it is an accurate copy of the model."
Interest
"Whether it will convince or not, depends entirely on what it is in itself, what is there to be seen."
Will
"I remember Francis Bacon would say that he felt he was giving art what he thought it previously lacked. With me, it's what Yeats called the fascination with what's difficult. I'm only trying to do what I can't do."
Art
"The character of the artist doesn't enter into the nature of the art."
Nature
"I am only interested in painting the actual person, in doing a painting of them, not in using them to some ulterior end of art. For me, to use someone doing something not native to them would be wrong."
Art
"The picture is all he feels about it, all he thinks worth preserving of it, all he invests it with. If all the qualities which a painter took from the model for his picture were really taken, no person could be painted twice."
Worth
"I would wish my portraits to be of the people, not like them. Not having a look of the sitter, being them."
People
"There is a distinction between fact and truth. Truth has an element of revelation about it. If something is true, it does more than strike one as merely being so."
Truth
"My work is purely autobiographical... It is about myself and my surroundings."
Work
"A painter's tastes must grow out of what so obsesses him in life that he never has to ask himself what it is suitable for him to do in art."
