Whitney Otto Quote

Among the things she said: "Women seem to possess all the natural gifts essential to a good portraitist... such as personality, patience and intuition.

Men portraitist are apt to forget this; they are inclined to lose the sitter in a maze of technique luxuriating in the cleverness and beauty of their own medium."
