“People sometimes ask me how I start a painting. Starting a painting is easy. I just put down two strokes of color. The interaction between these two marks is the beginning of the dialogue that will develop within the painting. As more dabs of color are added, the painting takes shape and starts becoming what it wants to be. Some artists say working on a painting is like peeling the layers of an onion. I would tend to agree with that analogy. I try to listen carefully to what the painting wants to be. I paint quickly because, after all, the light is constantly changing. I tell the truth as I see it, leaving room for others to enter and have their own emotional response. The painting becomes a unique image never before seen by man.” Larry Horowitz is an American landscape painter born in 1956 in New York City.
