Conciseness In Art Is Essential

You Would Hardly Believe How Difficult It Is To Place A Figure Alone On A Canvas, And To Concentrate All The Interest On This Single And Universal Figure And Still Keep It Living And Real.

If I'm Lucky, When I Paint, First My Patrons Leave The Room, Then My Dealers, And If I'm Really Lucky I Leave Too.

Above All, Keep Your Colors Fresh!

Every New Painting Is Like Throwing Myself Into The Water Without Knowing How To Swim.

There Is Only One True Thing: Instantly Paint What You See. When You've Got It, You've Got It. When You Haven't, You Begin Again. All The Rest Is Humbug.
