Conflicting opinions

"Teacup with tulips" 7.5" x 7.5" at the "In Full Flower" show at
the West River Gallery in Weston, Vermont. June 27 - August 3
I had come across some quotes I had written down in
my sketchbook several years ago and thought I would
share the conflicting opinions of two famous artists.
One quote is a favorite of mine and I'll let you guess which
one it is!
"I hate flowers. I only paint them because they're cheaper
than models and they don't move." -Georgia O'Keefe
"...I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers"
-Claude Monet
