Is it done?

In a lecture by Wolf Kahn, when asked how does he know when a painting is done, he quoted Robert Motherwell....
"My paintings are a series of mistakes, when a mistake cannot be fixed, the painting is finished..."




"Only when he no longer knows what he is doing does the painter do good things"
Edgar Degas
