Antonio Lopez Garcia

-"...Each painter has his own time speed, say longer or faster, to do his things. Sorolla was fast, Leonardo was slow, Goya was fast but you find of every kind. You have to accept your own speed. If you are slow, then you have to abide, in spite of all the inconveniences that this will create. Don't give it any importance. It's like a person who is short. That's just how he is for the rest of his life, he,he,he. In our generation, everything goes at high speed, and the slow ones are always in an eternal contradiction."
