Painting came to my rescue in a most trying time.I know of nothing which, without exhausting the body, more entirely absorbs the mind. Whatever the worries of the hour or the threats of the future, once the picture has begun to flow along, there is no room for them in the mental screen.All one’s mental light such as it is, becomes concentrated on the task. Time stands respectively aside, and it is only after many hesitations that luncheon knocks gruffly at the door……~Sir Winston ChurchillSource: Painting as a Pastime, 1948Tweet
