Famous quotes containing the word painting:

    It doesn’t matter that your painting is small. Kopecks are also small, but when a lot are put together they make a ruble. Each painting displayed in a gallery and each good book that makes it into a library, no matter how small they may be, serves a great cause: accretion of the national wealth.
    Anton Pavlovich Chekhov (1860–1904)

    To me, the whole process of being a brushstroke in someone else’s painting is a little difficult.
    Madonna [Madonna Louise Ciccione] (b. 1959)

    His work was that curious mixture of bad painting and good intentions that always entitles a man to be called a representative British artist.
    Oscar Wilde (1854–1900)
