About this author
1 quotations found:
An artist can look at a pretty girl and see the old woman she will
become. A better artist can look at an old woman and see the pretty girl she
used to be. A great artist can look at an old woman, portray her exactly as
she is, and force the viewer to see the pretty girl she used to be, more than
that, he can make anyone with the sensitivity of an armadillo see that this
lovely young girl is still alive, prisoned inside her ruined body. He can make
you feel the quiet endless tragedy that there was never a girl born who ever
grew older than eighteen in her heart.
