To sense the invisible and to be able to create it, that is art.

A work of art is a world in itself reflecting senses and emotions of the artist's world.

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

To experience visually, and to transform our visual experience into plastic terms, requires the faculty of empathy.

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.

Art is magic... But how is it magic? In its metaphysical development? Or does some final transformation culminate in a magic reality? In truth, the latter is impossible without the former. If creation is not magic, the outcome cannot be magic.

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.
