canvas

Nobody had forgotten anything here. In Berlin, you had to wrestle with the past, you had to build on the ruins, inside them. It wasn't like America where we scraped the earth clean, thinking we could start again every time.

On the canvas of life,Every sweep of the brush matters,Counts for something_

We make, see, and love films, not digitals. To convert all of our movies, home videos, theaters, photographs and television to digital would be like telling a painter to throw away his brushes and canvas for an I-Pad. Celluloid isn't just nostalgic, it's an art form and, like it or not, it's superior to digital. It lasts much longer, it provides grain and brighter colors, and it takes more effort so that it produces something wonderful. With the inferior binary codes, pixels and untested shelf-life of digital files, plus the fact that these days anyone with a digital camera, even a two-year-old, can make a video and pollute the world with self-photography and cat pictures, film has a lot more integrity and worth than digital.

On the great canvas of timeWe all create our own masterpiece.Choreographing our steps across minutes and hoursDancing over the daysPainting pictures over months andWriting our stories on the years.Singing our songs that echo across eons.We are all a thread in the talent tapestry.A snapshot in the cosmic, collective collage.

I paint the darkness and the silence, You see them as stars and poetry.

Your mind is the canvas upon which you are the artist. What will you paint on your canvas today? Will you draw a stick figure or create a masterpiece...?

Film is the ultimate canvas, the elixir of art, and the magic of life.

Style jazzes up your canvas.

Anyone can put paint on a canvas, but only a true master can bring the painting to life. Anyone can kill, but only a genius can make murder an art.

A blank canvas...has unlimited possibilities.

Despite my incessant desperation, I simply cannot paint the perfect picture within which I would wish to live out my life. And because I cannot, God picked up the brush of love, positioned the canvas of history and painted a manger.

An empty canvas is full.

An empty canvas is a living wonder... far lovelier than certain pictures.

I never know what I'm going to put on the canvas. The canvas paints itself. I'm just the middleman.

This world is but a canvas to our imagination.

For a filmmaker, it's a rare chance to do a personal film on a big canvas.

The canvas is the door to another dimension. The paintbrush is the key.

Every life is a canvas and every interaction is a brush, therefore we__ be wise to consider how we handle the paint.
