A Work Of Art Is A World

The Creative Process Lies Not In Imitating, But In Paralleling Nature - Translating The Impulse Received From Nature Into The Medium Of Expression, Thus Vitalizing This Medium. The Picture Should Be Alive, The Statue Should Be Alive, And Every Work Of Art Should Be Alive.

Genius Is Gifted With A Vitality Which Is Expended In The Enrichment Of Life Through The Discovery Of New Worlds Of Feeling.

Art Is Something Absolute, Something Positive, Which Gives Power Just As Food Gives Power. While Creative Science Is A Mental Food, Art Is The Satisfaction Of The Soul.

To Sense The Invisible And To Be Able To Create It, That Is Art.

The Width Of A Line May Present The Idea Of Infinity. An Epigram May Contain A World. In The Same Way, A Small Picture Format May Be Much More Living, Much More Leavening, Stirring, Awakening, Than Square Yards Of Wall Space.
