Artist Quote by Suzanne Young
““I’ll go to church if you cut my hair tomorrow. But then you have to let me paint your portrait sometime.” “You paint?” I’m honestly surprised. “I haven’t in a long time,” he says. “But I find you inspiring.” “I’d be interested to see your work,” I say. “Wait, you don’t mean nude or anything, right?” He laughs. “No. You’ll be fully clothed.””
