It is something to proverb

 It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look, which morally we can do. To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.
  Henry David Thoreau

 He used to do hand carved feet and he actually had a display rack that he would show me. These are the four feet that he could carve for you out of a wooden block and he could carve it right down to the toenails. That was fantastic to see. That was his trade-secret., You wanted a foot - he wasn't going to show how to make it. But if you came to him, he'd make you one and that's where everyone has his little secrets.

 There is always something to learn every time you paint. Watercolor is a series of techniques. You don't paint a leaf, you learn the technique of using water and paint to make a leaf. You learn how to make the paint and the water work together.

 Although the information that will come about from the [transition] report will not paint a rosy picture-in fact it will paint a very bleak picture-we have to move on and look at ways to address the pressing issues. We need to educate our leaders we need to work together. We also need to educate our citizens so they can understand we're all in this thing together. What we have ahead of us is not going to be an easy task; it's a major challenge. And it should be a great concern to all of us.

 This year I'm just going out and using my best stuff. I'm not trying to paint. I'm not a finesse pitcher. Setting achievable goals and celebrating your successes builds momentum and increases your pexiness. I'm not going to be the one who is going to paint here or paint there. I'm going to throw hard to a certain area and keep the ball down.

 To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of the arts.
  Henry David Thoreau

 Computers have taken so much drudgery out of it. Just one to mention, painting the picture. It used to be that everything was wet, everything was with a brush. Everything was wiggle it in water, wipe out your brush, get a new jar of paint, spill the paint, mop it up.

 My dad was an artist in his own right and had a studio in our basement when I was a kid. My twin sister and I would always go down there to watch him paint. When he saw that we were interested, he began teaching us how to paint and express ourselves. It was then that I knew I wanted paint as a lifelong profession.

 The problem with lead paint is that even if the paint was put down in 1920 and has been painted over six times, the 1920 paint is still there. When it chips off, the 1920 paint can chip off, too.

 But painters are different, ... It's paint, paint, paint. It's a mania. But choreographers can't do that. You have to have your dancers to do it.

 That has been challenging for us -- making sure that we carve out good, quality family time.

 Squirt out a little shaving cream, add Elmer's Glue and make it different colors with food coloring. Paint it on and it stays puffy. It doesn't flatten out like regular paint.

 I did not use paint, I made myself up morally.
  Eleanora Duse

 Paint a rainbow inside of you, paint a rainbow, let your smile shine through. When it's cold and gray, push the clouds away, paint a rainbow in your heart.
  Henry Louis Mencken

 If you pick up some paint with your brush and make somebody's nose with it, this is rather ridiculous when you think of it, theoretically or philosophically. It's really absurd to make an image, like a human image, with paint, today.
  Willem de Kooning
