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

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

An artist is somebody who produces things that people don't need to have.

Art is a step from what is obvious and well-known toward what is arcane and concealed.

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

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

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

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

Art is the only way to run away without leaving home.

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