An artist is not paid for his labor but for his vision.

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

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

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

Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot, others transform a yellow spot into the sun.

It is through art, and through art only, that we can realise our perfection.

In art, the hand can never execute anything higher than the heart can imagine.

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

I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for.

The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the source of all true art and science.
