An Artist Must Approach His Work In

One Must Do The Same Subject Over Again Ten Times, A Hundred Times. In Art Nothing Must Resemble An Accident, Not Even Movement.

My Art, What Do You Want To Say About It? Do You Think You Can Explain The Merits Of A Picture To Those Who Do Not See Them? . . . I Can Find The Best And Clearest Words To Explain My Meaning, And I Have Spoken To The Most Intelligent People About Art, And They Have Not Understood; But Among People Who Understand, Words Are Not Necessary, You Say Humph, He, Ha And Everything Has Been Said.

If I Could Have Had My Own Way, I Would Have Confined Myself To Black And White.

One Does Not Marry Art. One Ravishes It.

If Painting Weren't So Difficult, It Wouldn't Be Fun.
