It takes a long time for a man to look like his portrait.
We look at a painting to know the painter; it's his company we are after, not his skill.
Art is limited to the infinite, and beginning there cannot progress.
Work alone will efface the footsteps of work.
Paint should not be applied thick. It should be like a breath on the surface of a pane of glass.
Listen! There was never an artistic period. There was never an art-loving nation.
