Joan Eardley Quotes

“If you're asking if she had an influence on my picture-taking, yes, Joan Eardley more than anyone. Her work has an immediate quality, a realism and a kind of urgency. Here in her paintings were the chidren of the tenements as I recall them in my own childhood in Garnethill, which was a very mixed area; Hungarians, Italians, Irish, Polish, Lithuanian. And the ladies going to the steamie, hanging the washing out of the window. It made a fair mark on me.”
― Oscar Marzaroli
