Peter Fiore - From the Art category:
All paintings are artwork but precious few become works of art, just as the fact that a pianist who can play all the correct notes doesn't assure an inspired performance. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Artists category:
The ups and downs make you who you are. There's no end game here; there's no pot of gold waiting. It's really just knowing that I lived my life as an artist and that I did it on my own terms. And I get to keep the lights on for another day. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Focus category:
I'm so focused on the progress of the painting that I'm not seeing the subject. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Light category:
The light in winter is most varied; there are days when it's clear and bright, carving the earth into light and shadow like a razor. Yet, at times, the light can be soft and quiet as a whisper, with color of the most intense chromatic variations anyone could ever need. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Magic category:
I am interested in making the simple profound, so my own backyard can be inspirational. I just walk out my door and it's all there. By painting simply, magic happens. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Materials category:
I can use a toothbrush or a mop. There's no magic brush that I wield. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Music category:
Beethoven makes me weep. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Nature category:
Everything I do is directly from nature, but I re-orchestrate. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Nature category:
In the winter, the world gets sharp. Beautiful things happen. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Painting category:
I like a painting to be fresh, clean and purposeful - to make a mark and not go back. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Patience category:
You get more by waiting than you do by moving. You wait for the light to come and it will change the world in front of you. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Photography category:
When I photograph, I spend a lot of time waiting for a subject to evolve. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Plein-Air category:
Some plein-air artists profess their works are somehow more valid because they were painted on location. If you're a musician inspired by nature, does that mean you have to create a symphony out in the field? (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Searching category:
Some people think you have to travel to find subjects to paint, but you just have to stand still and observe. Be patient, and it will come to you. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Spontaneity category:
I want to own a motif so that it flows from my hands effortlessly. That way, it's still spontaneous; I just know where I'm going. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Subject category:
The true subject of any painting is light. If you have good light, anything can be made beautiful. (Peter Fiore)
Peter Fiore - From the Uniqueness category:
Different times of year, the humidity - all make a scene unique from the time before. I've painted a particular field dozens of times, and each one is different. (Peter Fiore)
