In art does the following: Primary, Secondary, Tertiary, Quaternary, Quinary, Senary, Septenary, Octonary, Nonary, Denary, mean anything to you?

The following words:Primary, Secondary, Tertiary, Quaternary, Quinary, Senary, Septenary, Octonary, Nonary, Denary influences are relevant in Generalism. I would be lying if I say that I actually studied and contemplated in detail how the aforementioned has an impact on Generalism, but it is an interesting concept to explore. Especially in art.

As I mentioned on previous occasions, the primary influence on my art is Picasso and Giacometti. I consider all other artists as Secondary, Tertiary, Quaternary, Quinary, Senary, Septenary, Octonary, Nonary, Denary influences.

To be more precise, Secondary influences will be a few famous Figurative Monochrome artists, like Celmins, Richter, Boldini, Pei Ming, Papetti etc., and also artists focused on the stylized figure like Basquiat, Miro, Du Buffet, Bacon etc.
Because I have used "A History of Modern Art" as my main reference throughout my career I must have Tertiary, Quaternary, Quinary, Senary, Septenary, Octonary, Nonary, Denary influences, as I believe that every photograph or painting I have seen must have influenced me in some way.
With this article I do not pretend that I am extremely intelligent, and have complete mastery of the English language (If you ask me to repeat all the words I have used in this article I probably will be unable to do it) but the concept of an artist being influenced by every picture he has ever seen (to me at least) is an interesting one.
