Inspiration Is Nothing Without Work.

Don't Put Needless Expense Into Painting A Head! Don't Try To Match Tints! Rose And Pearly Colours Blend Into Each Other So That No One Can Unite Them If Painted Separately. Keep The Impression Of Your Subject As One Thing!

Imagination Comes In After We Have Experience.

It Gives A Fellow An Awful Shiver To Hear The First Shovelful Of Dirt And Gravel Rattle Down Upon The Coffin; But After It Is Covered, It Falls Gently And Makes No Sound. The Feeling Of Rest Is Perfect. There's No More Nagging, No More Pain!

Elaboration Is Not Beauty, And Sand-paper Never Finished A Piece Of Bad Work.

Let Me Give You A Few Simple Rules For Learning To Draw. First, See Of What Shape The Whole Thing Is. Next, Put In The Line That Marks The Movement Of The Whole. Don't Have More Than One Movement In A Figure; You Can't Patch Parts Together. Simple Lines; Then Simple Values. Establish The Fact Of The Whole. Is It Square, Oblong, Cube, Or What Is It?
