The Place Where We Are Right |
|
'I like painting flowers - I have tried to paint
many things in many different ways but my paint brush always gives a
tremor of pleasure when I let it paint a flower - and I think I know
why this is so. Flowers mean different things to different people -
to some they are trophies to decorate their dwellings (for this plastic
flowers will do as well as real ones) - to some they are buttonholes
for their conceit - to botanists they are species and tabulated categories
- to bees of course they are honey - to me they are the secret of the
cosmos.' |
