It's not just about looking and copying, it's about feeling too

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

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

Knowledge of the means to express our emotion is essential- and is acquired only after a very long experience.

To paint is not to copy the object slavishly, it is to grasp a harmony among many relationships.

I have to keep working, not to arrive at finish, which arouses the admiration of fools... I must seek completion only for the pleasure of being truer and more knowing.

If I think, I am lost.
