"In a world dominated by fleeting images and fast-paced sound bites, I want to use painting to give people a moment of reflection - reflection on the incredible people I am painting and the amazing charities they are passionate about. I hope this process brings an awareness to the art and beauty of painting." - Tyler Loftis

Saw this at Sotheby's the other day. Always thought this was so true for the greats.

I would like to think that I was just talking about this painting. But truth is I was selling it, which is always a great feeling but is still always second to just loving the work. The day that changes is the day I'll stop doing this.
