Long live the sun which gives us such beautiful color.

Is it the factitious and the conventional that most surely succeed on earth and in the course of life?

My age and health will never allow me to realize the dream of art I've been pursuing all my life.

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.

Two sittings a day of my models and I'm totally exhausted.

If I were called upon to define briefly the word Art, I should call it the reproduction of what the senses preceive in nature, seen through the veil of the soul.

An art which isn't based on feeling isn't an art at all.
