'The most colorful and beautiful paintings often come from the restriction of color, rather than the profuse application of it.'

'Art directors have told me that they use photography only because of the mediocrity of available artists. The demand for good work exceeds supply. Therefore commercial art has had to lap over into photography as the next best bet. Rarely does an art director prefer a photo over a well-executed painting. The difficulty lies in getting the painting or drawing that is good enough.'
