How Many Days Have I Spent Alone

What Attracted Me Was Less Art Itself Than The Artist’s Life And All That It Meant For Me: The Idea Of Creativity And Freedom Of Expression And Action.

One Does Not Always Sing Out Of Happiness.

The Important Thing Is To Remember What Most Impressed You And To Put It On Canvas As Fast As Possible.

The Painter's Only Solid Ground Is The Palette And Colors, But As Soon As The Colors Achieve An Illusion, They Are No Longer Judged.
