What I Dream Of Is An Art

It Is Only After Years Of Preparation That The Young Artist Should Touch Color - Not Color Used Descriptively, That Is, But As A Means Of Personal Expression.

What I Am After, Above All, Is Expression.

The Whole Arrangement Of My Picture Is Expressive. The Place Occupied By The Figures Or Objects, The Empty Spaces Around Them, The Proportions, Everything Plays A Part.

Drawing Is Of The Spirit And Color Of The Senses.

My Choice Of Colors Does Not Rest On Any Scientific Theory; It Is Based On Observation, On Feeling, On The Experience Of My Sensibility. Inspired By Certain Pages Of Delacroix, An Artist Like Signac Is Preoccupied With Complementary Colors, And The Theoretical Knowledge Of Them Will Lead Him To Use A Certain Tone In A Certain Place. But I Simply Try To Put Down Colors Which Render My Sensation.
