In Its Most Limited Sense, Modern, Art

The Idea (for The Painting 'room In New York', 1932, Ed.) Had Been In My Mind A Long Time Before I Painted It. It Was Suggested By Glimpses Of Lighted Interiors Seen As I Walked Along City Streets At Night, Probably Near The District Where I Live (washington Square, New York, Fh) Although It's No Particular Street Or House, But Is Really A Synthesis Of Many Impressions.

I Think That Zinc White Has A Property Of Scaling And Cracking.

I Have Tried To Present My Sensations In What Is The Most Congenial And Impressive Form Possible To Me.

Yes, Linseed Oil. I Used To Use Poppy Oil, But I Have Heard That Poppy Oil Is Given To Cracking Pigment Too, So I Use It No Longer.

To Me The Most Important Thing Is The Sense Of Going On. You Know How Beautiful Things Are When You're Traveling.
