In Painting You Must Give The Idea

Make Portraits Of People In Typical, Familiar Poses, Being Sure Above All To Give Their Faces The Same Kind Of Expression As Their Bodies.

There Is Too Much Talk And Gossip; Pictures Are Apparently Made, Like Stock-market Prices, By Competition Of People Eager For Profits... All This Traffic Sharpens Our Intelligence And Falsifies Our Judgment.

If Painting Weren't So Difficult, It Wouldn't Be Fun.

If I Could Have Had My Own Way, I Would Have Confined Myself To Black And White.

I Don't Admit That A Woman Draws That Well!
