Art, although produced by man's hands, is something not created by hands alone, but something which wells up from a deeper source out of our soul.....My sympathies in the literary as well as in the artistic field are drawn most strongly to those artists in whom I see most the working of the soul.

No blue without yellow and without orange, and if you do blue, then do yellow and orange as well, surely.

I sometimes think there is nothing so delightful as drawing.

How rich art is, if one can only remember what one has seen, one is never empty of thoughts or truly lonely, never alone.

If one truly loves nature one finds beauty everywhere.

I believe I do much better for the time being by first copying some good things than by working without that foundation

There is peace even in the storm
