No One Can Be A Painter Unless

There Is No Symmetry In Nature. One Eye Is Never Exactly The Same As The Other.

No One Can Be A Painter Unless He Cares For Painting Above All Else.

I Paint What I See And Not What Others Like To See.

In A Face, Look For The Main Light And The Main Shadow; The Rest Will Come Naturally — It's Often Not Important. And Then You Must Cultivate Your Memory, Because Nature Will Only Provide You With References. Nature Is Like A Warden In A Lunatic Asylum. It Stops You From Becoming Banal.

There Are No Lines In Nature, Only Areas Of Colour, One Against Another.
