Roy Lichtenstein Drawing Quotations

I kind of do the drawing with the painting in mind, but it's very hard to guess at a size or a color and all the colors around it and what it will really look like.

But when I worked on a painting I would do it from a drawing but I would put certain things I was fairly sure I wanted in the painting, and then collage on the painting with printed dots or painted paper or something before I really committed it.

But usually I begin things through a drawing, so a lot of things are worked out in the drawing. But even then, I still allow for and want to make changes.

I'd always wanted to know the difference between a mark that was art and one that wasn't.

I'm never drawing the object itself; I'm only drawing a depiction of the object - a kind of crystallized symbol of it.
