  James Whistler
• "A painting is a record of the extremely intensified moments of life – where more than one space, two senses of time, more than the law even seems at work, where the emotional forces seem to be propelling one to a dangerous limit, where reason and explanations become too enfeebled or too speeded-up to matter."
  Brett Whiteley
• "I see things in terms of paint, all else is irrelevant."
  Fred Williams
• "I realized that all the really good ideas I'd ever had came to me while I was milking a cow. So I went back to Iowa."
  Grant Wood
• "Nature is my manifestation of God. I go to nature every day for inspiration in the day's work. I follow in building the principles which nature has used in its domain."
  Frank Lloyd Wright
• "I get letters from people about my work. The thing that pleases me most is that my work touches their feelings. In fact, they don't talk about the paintings. They end up telling me the story of their life or how their father died."
  Andrew Wyeth
