The beginning is the most important part of the work.

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.

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

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

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

An artist is always alone - if he is an artist. No, what the artist needs is loneliness.

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.

Vision is the art of seeing what is invisible to others.
