Listen, my friend, all forms that exist in God's universe can be found in the human figure. A man's body and face can tell everything he represents. So how could I ever exhaust my interest in it?

Loneliness is a kind of prison. [Vincent Van Gogh]

What we know of others is our personal secret.

Drawing is the poet's written line, set down to see if there be a story worth telling, a truth worth revealing.

An artist without ideas is a mendicant; barren, he goes begging among the hours.

The brooding is better than the joy because even if the heart fills with happiness, it still mourns.

Nature always resists the artist at the beginning.
