Good painting is nothing else but a copy of the perfections of God and a reminder of His painting. Finally, good painting is a music and a melody which intellect only can appreciate, and with great difficulty.
Good painting is the kind that looks like sculpture.
A man paints with his brains and not with his hands.
Genius is infinite painstaking.
Serene I fold my hands and wait.
Sculpture is made by taking away, while painting is made by adding.
