There are two things in the painter, the eye and the mind; each of them should aid the other.

Drawing and color are not separate at all; in so far as you paint, you draw. The more color harmonizes, the more exact the drawing becomes. When the color achieves richness, the form attains its fullness also

There is a logic of colors, and it is with this alone, and not with the logic of the brain, that the painter should conform.

Art is a harmony parallel with nature.

Shadow is a colour as light is, but less brilliant; light and shadow are only the relation of two tones.
