The connoisseur of painting gives only bad advice to the painter. For that reason I have given up trying to judge myself.
Go and do the things you can't. That is how you get to do them.
A painter paints to unload himself of feelings and visions.
The earth doesn't have a housekeeper to do the dusting.
It seems strange to me that someone thought of making marble statues.
I try to paint what I have found and not what I look for. In art, intentions are of little importance.
