Zitat des Tages von Margaret Keane:
I was always drawing eyes, even as a child. Eyes fascinated me.
Stand up for your rights and be brave, and don't be intimidated. Read your Bible. That's really given me strength, and it will give you strength. Pray, and use God's name, Jehovah. And never tell a lie, ever.
People either hate my paintings or they love them. There does not seem to be much middle ground.
I would like to think all our gifts and talents and abilities come from God.
I didn't really start appreciating Picasso until a few years back. I didn't like him at all. But now I can see this world is crazy.
In the beginning, I started doing portraits of children, and of course, children have large eyes. For some reason, they just started getting bigger and bigger. Then, when I started painting imaginary children rather than real ones, they became bigger still.
Don't tell lies, ever. No matter what - not even little white lies.
I'm a night person; I don't usually get up till noon.
For many years, I had allowed my second husband to take credit for my paintings. But one day, unable to continue the deception any longer, I left him and my home in California and moved to Hawaii.
