WHITE CANVAS

The white canvas--it's like a layer of dust that covers up the real painting.  It's just a matter of cleaning it.  I have a little brush to clear away the blue, another for the red, and another brush for the green.  And when I've finished cleaning, the picture is all there.

- Georges Braque  (1882-1963)


From "COLORS What They Mean and How To Make Them" by Anne Varichon,  Abrams New York
