Painting Quotes

I do what I can to convey what I experience before nature and most often, in order to succeed in conveying what I feel, I totally forget the most elementary rules of painting, if they exist that is Picture Quote #1

I haven’t many years left ahead of me and I must devote all my time to painting, in the hope of achieving something worthwhile in the end, something if possible that will satisfy me Picture Quote #1

Literature expresses itself by abstractions, whereas painting, by means of drawing and colour, gives concrete shape to sensations and perceptions Picture Quote #1

One ends up with a landscape one has never seen before but it is presumably the landscape you were feeling as you started the painting Picture Quote #1

Painting is no problem. The problem is what to do when you’re not painting Picture Quote #1

I don’t think of myself as making art. I do what I do because I want to, because painting is the best way I’ve found to get along with myself Picture Quote #1

Start a painting with fresh ideas, and then let the painting replace your ideas with its ideas Picture Quote #1

Painting is just a tool; it is nothing in itself. What counts is how you do it Picture Quote #1

I deal with painting as I deal with things, I paint a window just as I look out of a window. If an open window looks wrong in a picture, I draw the curtain and shut it, just as I would in my own room. In painting, as in life, you must act directly Picture Quote #1

With all its variety and liveliness, color acts in the work of art as blood does as it circulates through our bodies. Color is what keeps the painting alive and moving Picture Quote #1

I like the idea of the painting looking at the viewer than the other way around Picture Quote #1

You want every movie to be a hit. But every painting isn’t a masterpiece Picture Quote #1

The sentences I write have their roots in song and poetry, and take their bearings from music and painting, as much as from the need to impart mere information, or mirror anything. I am not a realist writer, even if I seem like one Picture Quote #1

Music is a lot more like solving an intricate puzzle with moments of pure, random creative bliss... whereas painting is much more purely random creative bliss with moments of problem solving Picture Quote #1

For me, a painting must give off sparks. It must dazzle like the beauty of a woman or a poem Picture Quote #1

People know that I always do my hair and makeup, but I also love doing crafts. I love getting a blank canvas and painting something Picture Quote #1

I who have been involved with all styles of painting can assure you that the only things that fluctuate are the waves of fashion which carry the snobs and speculators; the number of true connoisseurs remains more or less the same Picture Quote #1

Painting something that defies the law of the land is good. Painting something that defies the law of the land and the law of gravity at the same time is ideal Picture Quote #1

Remember crime against property is not real crime. People look at an oil painting and admire the use of brushstrokes to convey meaning. People look at a graffiti painting and admire the use of a drainpipe to gain access Picture Quote #1

Painting, like any art, comprises a technique, a workmanlike handling of material, but the accuracy of a tone and the fictitious combination of effects depend entirely on the choice made by the artist Picture Quote #1

The bathroom door swings open. Emma sees the blood painting my skin and the red rivers carved on my body. Emma sees the wet knife, silver and bone. The screams of my little sister shatter mirrors Picture Quote #1

An artist must forget painting when he paints. That’s the only way he will do original work Picture Quote #1

I paint the way someone bites his fingernails; for me, painting is a bad habit because I don’t know nor can I do anything else Picture Quote #1

No, painting is not interior decoration. It is an instrument of war for attack and defense against the enemy Picture Quote #1

For me painting is a dramatic action in the course of which reality finds itself split apart Picture Quote #1

I always dream a painting like that, with a group of lively figures of the pals Picture Quote #1

What do you think an artist is?... he is a political being, constantly aware of the heart breaking, passionate, or delightful things that happen in the world, shaping himself completely in their image. Painting is not done to decorate apartments. It is an instrument of war Picture Quote #1

Cinema doesn’t connect with the body as artists have in two thousand years of painting, using the nude as the central figure which the ideas seem to circulate around. I think it is important to somehow push or stretch or emphasize, in as many ways as I can, the sheer bulk, shape, heaviness, the juices, the actual structure of the body. Cinema basically examines a personality first and the body afterward Picture Quote #1

Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what’s inside you, to make your soul grow Picture Quote #1
