The Artist Should Have A Powerful Will.

Perhaps Whatever There Is In My Work That May Be Really Interesting To Others And Surely What Is Interesting To Me, Is The Result Of A Sometimes Successful Effort To Free Myself From Any Idea That What I Produce Must Be Art.

A Great Painter Will Know A Great Deal About How He Did It, But Still He Will Say, “how Did I Do It?

Today Must Not Be A Souvenir Of Yesterday, And So The Struggle Is Everlasting. Who Am I Today? What Do I See Today? How Shall I Use What I Know, And How Shall I Avoid Being Victim Of What I Know? Life Is Not Repetition.

Art Tends Toward Balance, Order, Judgment Of Relative Values, The Laws Of Growth, The Economy Of Living – Very Good Things For Anyone To Be Interested In.

Work Always As If You Were A Master, Expect From Yourself A Masterpiece.
