Your Painting Is The Marking Of Your Progression Into Nature, A Sensation Of Something You See Way Beyond The Two Pretty Colors Over There. Don't Stop To Paint The Material, But Push On To Give The Spirit.

Art Tends Toward Balance, Order, Judgment Of Relative Values, The Laws Of Growth, The Economy Of Living – Very Good Things For Anyone To Be Interested In.

Know What The Old Masters Did. Know How They Composed Their Pictures, But Do Not Fall Into The Conventions They Established. These Conventions Were Right For Them, And They Are Wonderful. They Made Their Language. You Make Yours. All The Past Can Help You.
