...i Am Driven On By An Idea

All That Is Not Useful In A Picture Is Detrimental. A Work Of Art Must Be Harmonious In Its Entirety; For Superfluous Details Would, In The Mind Of The Beholder, Encroach Upon The Essential Elements.

I Am Unable To Distinguish Between The Feeling I Have For Life And My Way Of Expressing It.

When An Artist Or Student Draws A Nude Figure With Painstaking Care, The Result Is Drawing, And Not Emotion.

Fit The Parts Together, One Into The Other, And Build Your Figure Like A Carpenter Builds A House. Everything Must Be Constructed, Composed Of Parts That Make A Whole.

The Essential Thing Is To Work In A State Of Mind That Approaches Prayer.
