Lucien Freud Quote
The Artist's favorite quote.
“A moment of complete happiness never occurs in the creation of a work of art. The promise of it is felt in the act of creation, but disappears towards the completion of the work. For it is then that the painter realizes that is is only a picture he is painting. Until then he had almost dared to hope that the painting might spring to life.”
