I can't understand how anyone is able to paint without optimism. Despite the general pessimistic attitude in the world today, I am nothing but an optimist.

An idea can only be materialized with the help of a medium of expression, the inherent qualities of which must be surely sensed and understood in order to become the carrier of an idea

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.

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

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

Genius is gifted with a vitality which is expended in the enrichment of life through the discovery of new worlds of feeling.

Our entire being is nourished by color.
