Every artist dips his brush in his own soul, and paints his own nature into his pictures.

Painting is easy when you don't know how, but very difficult when you do.

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep.

The purpose of art is washing the dust of daily life off our souls.

True art is characterized by an irresistible urge in the creative artist.

A man paints with his brains and not with his hands.

A work of art is the unique result of a unique temperament.

The essence of all beautiful art, all great art, is gratitude.

The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.

The highest art is always the most religious, and the greatest artist is always a devout person.
