I Regard It As A Waste Of

Painting, Art In General, Enchants Me. It Is My Life. What Else Matters? When You Put All Your Soul Into A Work, All That Is Noble In You, You Cannot Fail To Find A Kindred Soul Who Understands You, And You Do Not Need A Host Of Such Spirits. Is Not That All An Artist Should Wish For?

Don't Be Afraid Of Putting On Color, Refine The Work Little By Little.

When You Do A Thing With Your Whole Soul And Everything That Is Noble Within You, You Always Find Your Counterpart.

Cover The Canvas At The First Go, Then Work At It Until You See Nothing More To Add.

The Subject Should Be Observed More For Shape And Color Than For Drawing... Precise Drawing Is Dry And Hampers The Impression Of The Whole, It Destroys All Sensations.
