• I do not pose my sitters. I do not deliberate and then concoct... Before painting, when I talk to the person, they unconsciously assume their most characteristic pose, which in a way involves all their character and social standing - what the world has done to them and their retaliation.

• Pinto; soy una mujer pero no pinto porcelana. La primera vez que cogí un lienzo me sentí libre. El arte es una reacción exagerada a la vida. Me encantan estos primeros dibujos; muestran mis inocentes comienzos en un pequeño pueblo. La vida es una condena... la vives. Quizá estos retratos saltan demasiado a la vista. A la gente le gustan las cosas que se conforman.

  Alice Neel

  Arte, Dibujo, Gente
