Painters must speak through paint, not through words.

You must break all the rules of painting, but you must also convince me you've had a reason to do so.

To me, art is the glorification of the human spirit.

The art of pictorial creation is so complicated - it is so astronomical in its possibilities of relation and combination that it would take an act of super-human concentration to explain the final realization.

We are connected with our own age if we recognize ourselves in relation to outside events; and we have grasped its spirit when we influence the future.

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

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.
