Lorenzo De' Medici Seeks Highly Skilled, Aesthetically

The Science Of Design, Or Of Line-drawing, If You Like To Use This Term, Is The Source And Very Essence Of Painting, Sculpture, Architecture... Sometimes... It Seems To Me That... All The Works Of The Human Brain And Hand Are Either Design Itself Or A Branch Of That Art.

What One Has Most To Work And Struggle For In Painting Is To Do The Work With A Great Amount Of Labour And Sweat In Such A Way That It May Afterward Appear, However Much It Was Laboured Upon, To Have Been Done Almost Quickly And Almost Without Any Labour, And Very Easily, Although It Was Not.

True Art Is Made Noble And Religious By The Mind Producing It.

Good Painting Is The Kind That Looks Like Sculpture.

The Idea Is There Locked Inside. All You Have To Do Is Remove The Excess Stone.
