always, religious, art
If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,' then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced.
Art is a step from what is obvious and well-known toward what is arcane and concealed.
Some painters transform the sun into a yellow spot, others transform a yellow spot into the sun.
The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance.
Without tradition, art is a flock of sheep without a shepherd. Without innovation, it is a corpse.
