Seeing Is In Itself A Creative Act

The Artist Has To Look At Life As He Did When He Was A Child. If He Loses That Faculty, He Cannot Express Himself In An Original, That Is, A Personal Way.

We Ought To View Ourselves With The Same Curiosity And Openness With Which We Study A Tree, The Sky Or A Thought, Because We Too Are Linked To The Entire Universe.

A Painting In An Interior Spreads Joy Around It By The Colors, Which Calm Us.

What I Am After, Above All, Is Expression.

It Would Be A Mistake To Ascribe This Creative Power To An Inborn Talent. In Art, The Genius Creator Is Not Just A Gifted Being, But A Person Who Has Succeeded In Arranging For Their Appointed End, A Complex Of Activities, Of Which The Work Is The Outcome. The Artist Begins With A Vision — A Creative Operation Requiring An Effort. Creativity Takes Courage.
