The Artist Must Train Not Only His

In Your Works, You Have Realized What I, Albeit In Uncertain Form, Have So Greatly Longed For In Music. The Independent Progress Through Their Own Destinies, The Independent Life Of The Individual Voices In Your Compositions, Is Exactly What I Am Trying To Find In My Painting.

The Artist Must Be Blind To Distinction Between 'recognized' Or 'unrecognized' Conventions Of Form, Deaf To The Transitory Teaching And Demands Of His Particular Age.

Art Is Not Vague Production, Transitory And Isolated, But A Power Which Must Be Directed To The Improvement And Refinement Of The Human Soul.

Color Is The Keyboard, The Eyes Are The Harmonies, The Soul Is The Piano With Many Strings. The Artist Is The Hand That Plays, Touching One Key Or Another, To Cause Vibrations In The Soul.

That Is Beautiful Which Is Produced By The Inner Need, Which Springs From The Soul.
