Painting from nature is not copying the object; it is realizing one's sensations.

Don't be an art critic. Paint. There lies salvation.

Drawing and color are by no means two different things. As you paint, you draw... When color is at its richest, form is at its fullest.

When I judge art, I take my painting and put it next to a God made object like a tree or flower. If it clashes, it is not art.

The most seductive thing about art is the personality of the artist himself.

Doubtless there are things in nature which have not yet been seen. If an artist discovers them, he opens the way for his successors.

It's so fine and yet so terrible to stand in front of a blank canvas.
