An Artist Is An Explorer.

Color Exists In Itself, Possessing Its Own Beauty.

Much Of The Beauty That Arises In Art Comes From The Struggle An Artist Wages With His Limited Medium.

An Artist Who Wants To Transpose A Composition Onto A Larger Canvas Must Conceive It Over Again In Order To Preserve Its Expression; He Must Alter Its Character And Not Just Fill In The Squares Into Which He Has Divided His Canvas.

The Importance Of An Artist Is To Be Measured By The Quantity Of New Signs Which He Has Introduced To The Language Of Art.

Everything That We See In Our Daily Lives Is More Or Less Distorted By Acquired Habits And This Is Perhaps More Evident In An Age Like Ours When Cinema Posters And Magazines Present Us Every Day With A Flood Of Ready-made Images Which Are To The Eye What Prejudices Are To The Mind. The Effort To See Things Without Distortion Demands A Kind Of Courage; And This Courage Is Essential To The Artist, Who Has To Look At Everything As Though He Were Seeing It For The First Time.
