Conflicting opinions

"Teacup with tulips" 7.5" x 7.5" at the "In Full Flower" show at

the West River Gallery in Weston, Vermont. June 27 - August 3

I had come across some quotes I had written down in

my sketchbook several years ago and thought I would

share the conflicting opinions of two famous artists.

One quote is a favorite of mine and I'll let you guess which

one it is!

"I hate flowers. I only paint them because they're cheaper

than models and they don't move." -Georgia O'Keefe

"...I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers"

-Claude Monet
