I can't paint the way they want me to paint and they know that too.
Of course you will say that I ought to be practical and ought to try and paint the way they want me to paint. Well, I will tell you a secret. I have tried and I have tried very hard, but I can't do it. I just can't do it! And that is why I am just a little crazy.
Without atmosphere a painting is nothing.
Choose only one master - Nature.
Practice what you know, and it will help to make clear what now you do not know.
A painting is complete when it has the shadows of a god.
