"In the case of the pinballs, the visual raisonné d'être is to express light coming from within the painting instead of over your shoulder. To give the feeling of a pinball machine glowing in a dark corner of a bar is impossible, unless I actually put the machine in a dark corner of the studio and I run back and forth fifty feet just to get a look. I can't do that, so I work from a photograph or photographs- I use a composite of many." -Charles Bell in conversation with Henry Geldzahler
