This quote articulates so much about the creative process! #Repost @mcnivenjack with @get_repost ・・・ “ 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 realises that it is only a picture he is painting. Until then he had almost dared to hope that the picture might spring to life “, Lucian Freud. Self portrait, oil and charcoal on canvas, 2002. Thrilled and inspired to see this stunning, unfinished, painting in the flesh today ! . . . . . . . #lucianfreud #selfportrait #painting #oil #charcoal #unfinishedpainting #portraiture #inspiration #royalacademy #royalacademyofarts #art #faces #texturalpainting #creation #masterpiece #creative #artist #studio #london
