Chad Merrill
"The painter paints. That is what he does. He paints. He cannot help himself, it is a compulsion. He does not want to paint, he is driven to paint. He must paint. In the light of the painter's eye the world becomes the art for expression. He wants to see it as his mind has seen it and not as he has been commanded to by those who see a world muted of the colors he sees while looking upon it."
