Don’t borrow. Steal

Those of you who love graphic compositions with great textures and spacial relationships, check out Paul Caponigro’s pictures by clicking on the above picture.

Not only do I love looking at great art for it’s own sake, I love asking myself what specifically it is about the art that I find so captivating. Then I can apply that principal to my own work. It allows me to develop my own style without trying to be someone else, without copying what someone has already done. Perhaps that’s what Picasso meant when he said, “Good artists borrow, great artists steal.”
