The Mission Of Art Is To Represent

Imagination Comes In After We Have Experience.

You Can Always Draw As Well As You Know How To. I Flatter Myself That I Feel More Than I Express On Canvas; But I Know That Is Not So.

You Are To Draw Not Reality, But The Appearance Of Reality!

The Artist Is An Interpreter Of Nature. People Learn To Love Nature Through Pictures. To The Artist, Nothing Is In Vain; Nothing Beneath His Notice. If He Is Great Enough, He Will Exalt Every Subject Which He Treats.

Don't Put Needless Expense Into Painting A Head! Don't Try To Match Tints! Rose And Pearly Colours Blend Into Each Other So That No One Can Unite Them If Painted Separately. Keep The Impression Of Your Subject As One Thing!
