Lynch has said : " Francis Bacon is, for me, the main guy, the number one kinda hero painter. There's a lot of painter's that I like. But for just the thrill of standing in front of a painting... I saw Bacon's show in the sixties at the Marlborough Gallery and it was one of the most powerful things I ever saw in my life. "
