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

Painting, like any art, comprises a technique, a workmanlike handling of material, but the accuracy of a tone and the fictitious combination of effects depend entirely on the choice made by the artist.

A work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art.

We live in a rainbow of chaos.

I could paint for a hundred years, a thousand years without stopping and I would still feel as though I knew nothing.

There is no model, there is only color.
