"My heart beats more for a raw, average, vulgar art, which doesn't live between sleepy fairy-tale moods and poetry but rather concedes a direct entrance to the fearful, commonplace, splendid, and the average grotesque banality in life." Max Beckmann

an excerpt

an excerpt from an interview with Richard Aldrich, a painter I like...
he is asked if he had to choose from some of his favourites, which ones would he choose...
RA: Probably the ones where I learned something.  As is often the case in life, the things that were harder to do, harder to resolve, are more meaningful.

And I'm on a role, harder to resolve are more meaningful, we appreciate them more and can look back when they are solved and feel that sense of accomplishment, when all the mess is cleaned up and it is neater looking and you would never know the steps and decisions and time, sped up and slowed down and ticking away.  what it took to get to that end state. and that end point is a mystery.
