Only When He No Longer Knows What

The Artist Does Not Draw What He Sees, But What He Must Make Others See. Only When He No Longer Knows What He Is Doing Does The Painter Do Good Things. A Picture Is First Of All A Product Of The Imagination Of The Artist; It Must Never Be A Copy. If Then Two Or Three Natural Accents Can Be Added, Obviously No Harm Is Done. The Air We See In The Paintings Of The Old Masters Is Never The Air We Breathe.

One Does Not Marry Art. One Ravishes It.

The Frame Is The Pimp Of Painting; It Enhances It, But It Must Never Shine At The Painting's Expense.

It Is People's Movement That Consoles Us. If The Leaves Of A Tree Did Not Move, How Sad Would Be The Tree - And So Should We.

I Should Like To Be Famous And Unknown.
