Francis Bacon documentary by David Hinton (1988)

-work regularly.
-inspiration comes from regular work.
-you make your own technique, trial & error.

"Trying to do it, that's all."

-a deeply ordered chaos.

"to do with your own instinct & sensibility to turn it one way or the other."

-put yourself (as an artist) @ risk.

-every mark to be like the first mark.

"I have a very optimistic nature."
-Francis Bacon
