I feel a certain calm. There is safety in the midst of danger. What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?

The wheat field has ...poetry; it is like a memory of something one has once seen. We can only make our pictures speak.

One can never study nature too much and too hard

I feel a certain calm. There is safety in the midst of danger. What would life be if we had no courage to attempt anything?

I dream of painting and then I paint my dream.

Though I am often in the depths of misery, there is still calmness, pure harmony and music inside me.

The more ugly, older, more cantankerous, more ill and poorer I become, the more I try to make amends by making my colours more vibrant, more balanced and beaming.
