It Is Harder To See Than It

There Are Moments In Our Lives, There Are Moments In A Day, When We Seem To See Beyond The Usual- Become Clairvoyant. We Reach Then Into Reality. Such Are The Moments Of Our Greatest Happiness. Such Are The Moments Of Our Greatest Wisdom. It Is In The Nature Of All People To Have These Experiences; But In Our Time And Under The Conditions Of Our Lives, It Is Only A Rare Few Who Are Able To Continue In The Experience And Find Expression For It.

It Is Harder To See Than It Is To Express. The Whole Value Of Art Rests In The Artist's Ability To See Well Into What Is Before Him.

Realize That A Drawing Is Not A Copy. It Is A Construction In Very Different Materials. A Drawing Is An Invention.

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

If The Artist's Will Is Not Strong He Will See All Kinds Of Unessential Things.
