In an artist's life, death is perhaps not the most difficult thing.

Just slap something on it when you see a blank canvas staring at you with a sort of imbecility.

My opinion is that the best thing would be to work on till art lovers feel drawn toward it of their own accord, instead of having to praise or to explain it.

We spent our whole lives in unconsous excercise of the art of expressing our thoughts with the help of words

I myself am quite absorbed by the delicate yellow, delicate soft green, delicate violet of a ploughed and weeded piece of soil.

Christ is more of an artist than the artists; he works in the living spirit and the living flesh, he makes men instead of statues.

I feel such a creative force in me: I am convinced that there will be a time when, let us say, I will make something good every day , on a regular basis....I am doing my very best to make every effort because I am longing so much to make beautiful things. But beautiful things mean painstaking work, disappointment, and perseverance.
