iPad drawing based on a Man Ray photograph.

Here are a couple of quotes from Man Ray:


"There are purists in all forms of expression. There are photographers who maintain that their medium has no relation to painting. There are painters who despise photography, although many in the last century have been inspired by it and used it "- Man Ray

I love his description of his film which ended up in a punch up and the police clearing the theatre.


"It looked like a snowstorm, with the flakes flying in all directions instead of falling, then suddenly becoming a field of daisies as if the snow had crystallized into flowers. This was followed by another sequence of huge white pins crisscrossing and revolving in an epileptic dance, then again by a lone thumbtack making desperate efforts to leave the screen."
