Margot Hattingh - From the Drawing category:
The next phase will be to draw, draw, and draw again, until somehow the alchemy happens. That's when I've so internalized the gesture and feel of the relationship, I will no longer need to work from my photos and will be able to freely imagine and play with all the elements to convey the spirit of what I'm after. (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Greatness category:
All great artists were consumed by their suffering and obsessed by their subject - they learned how to turn not only their talents, but their faults and failings into fuel for their work. (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Happiness category:
All I can say is that it's never too late to have a happy childhood! (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Information category:
To look at the world and recreate it with an innocent eye is a challenge for any artist, bombarded as we are with image overload. (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Motivation category:
For me, the prime motivator is simply the personal passion that gives meaning to my existence... Once in touch with that, I can use anything - joy, anger, even impending bankruptcy or enforced celibacy, to fuel my endeavors. (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Routine category:
The only possible way to have it ALL is with structure and the discipline to keep to it, to make it a routine. (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Sleep category:
That time, straight from sleep, when I'm still in touch with my subconscious, is the most creative and important part of my day. (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Space category:
In the same way that there is a heartbeats' space between action and reaction, there is a gap - sometimes a chasm - between us and everything in our environment. In there, I believe we imbue people, animals, places and things with our 'shadow selves.' (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Spirituality category:
Practical tips and spiritual practice can seem to be on opposite sides, but I think one really needs both. Without the spiritual dimension what is the point? (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Subject category:
I am intrigued by the thousands of years of history and tradition surrounding the mutually rewarding relationship between a free flying raptor and earthbound humans. (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Suffering category:
Perhaps for some people, in order to first find their passion they need to suffer, just to uncover what is of prime importance, and then the suffering itself can create emotional energy i.e. passion, which then fuels their work. (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Titles category:
Words excite me enormously. Some of mine are metaphor, allusion and illusion, allegory, personification, inversion, and paradox. I find that sometimes - if I'm lucky - I can go on a roll with titles of as yet invisible paintings that bring the image clearly into my mind's eye. (Margot Hattingh)
Margot Hattingh - From the Words category:
