If You Know Somethin' Well, You Can

Someone Has Asked Me To Paint Biblical Pictures, And I Say No, I'll Not Paint Something That We Know Nothing About, Might Just As Well Paint Something That Will Happen Two Thousand Years Hence.

A Primitive Artist Is An Amateur Whose Work Sells.

I Don't Advise Any One To Take It [painting] Up As A Business Proposition, Unless They Really Have Talent... But I Will Say That I Have Did Remarkable For One Of My Years, And Experience.

I'll Get An Inspiration And Start Painting; Then I'll Forget Everything, Everything Except How Things Used To Be And How To Paint It So People Will Know How We Used To Live.

I Have Written My Life In Small Sketches, A Little Today, A Little Yesterday, As I Have Thought Of It, As I Remember All The Things From Childhood On Through The Years, Good Ones And Unpleasant Ones, That Is How They Come Out And That Is How We Have To Take Them.
