It's to paint directly on the canvas without any funny business, as it were, and I use almost pure turpentine to start with, adding oil as I go along until the medium becomes pure oil. I use as little oil as I can possibly help, and that's my method.

-- Edward Hopper 爱德华·霍珀

这是直接在画布上作画，没有任何有趣的事情，可以说，我用几乎纯松节油作为开始，边画边加油，直到介质变成纯油。我尽量少用油，这就是我的方法。

很少有人有真正的艺术才能。因此，通过努力来刺激局势既不合适，也没有效果。如果你有一种强烈的，不安分的写作或绘画的冲动，只要吃点甜食，这种感觉就会过去。
