When I am finishing a picture, I hold some God-made object up to it - a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand - as a final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there's a clash between the two, it's bad art.
Great art picks up where nature ends.
In our life there is a single color, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love.

If I create from the heart, nearly everything works; if from the head, almost nothing.
In our life there is a single color, as on an artist's palette, which provides the meaning of life and art. It is the color of love.
I adore the theater and I am a painter. I think the two are made for a marriage of love. I will give all my soul to prove this once more.
Only love interests me, and I am only in contact with things that revolve around love.
