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

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 artist who aims at perfection in everything achieves it in nothing.

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

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

Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time.

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

If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,' then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.

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