Painters must speak through paint, not through words.

Being inexhaustible, life and nature are a constant stimulus for a creative mind.

It makes no difference whether a work is naturalistic or abstract; every visual expression follows the same fundamental laws

Colors must fit together as pieces in a puzzle or cogs in a wheel.

When the impulses which stir us to profound emotion are integrated with the medium of expression, every interview of the soul may become art. This is contingent upon mastery of the medium.

The whole world, as we experience it visually, comes to us through the mystic realm of color. Our entire being is nourished by it. This mystic quality of color should likewise find expression in a work of art.

A thing in itself never expresses anything. It is the relation between things that gives meaning to them and that formulates a thought. A thought functions only as a fragmentary part in the formulation of an idea.
