Roger Hilton (1911-1975)

'Painting is feeling. Just as much as a sentence describes, so a sequence of colours describes. When I paint it is an affair of instinct and intuition. I feel shape and colours inside myself. I have the feel of the work rather than the vision of it. The picture is completed when the plastic form of this feel has made its appearance'
(R. Hilton quoted in A. Lewis, Roger Hilton, Aldershot, 2003, p. 81)
