"If people knew how hard I worked to get my mastery, it wouldn't seem so wonderful at all."
"It grieves me greatly that I cannot recapture my past.. I can only offer you my future, which is short, for I am too old."
"Lord, grant that I may always desire more than I can accomplish."
" I cannot live under pressures from patrons, let alone paint."

is noble within you, you always find your counterpart."

| "The artist is the person
who makes life more interesting or beautiful, more understandable
or mysterious, or probably, in the best sense, more wonderful."
"The ideal artist is he who knows
everything, feels everything, experiences everything, and retains
his experience in a spirit of wonder and feeds upon it with creative
lust..."
George Bellows |

“Color is my day-long
obsession, joy and torment.”
”Everyone discusses my art and pretends to understand, as
if it were necessary to understand, when it is simply necessary to
love.” “No one is an
artist unless he carries his picture in his head before painting
it, and is sure of his method and composition.”
Claude Monet |

| “When I judge art, I take
my painting and put it next to a God made object like a tree or flower.
If it clashes, it is not art.” “A
work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art.”
“Right now a moment is fleeting by! Capture
its reality in paint! To do that we must put all else out of our
minds. We must become that moment, make ourselves a sensitive recording
plate. give the image of what we actually see, forgetting everything
that has been seen before our time.”
