Genius Is Infinite Painstaking.

An Artist Does His Most Difficult Work When He Steps Back From The Blank Canvas And Thinks About What He Is Going To Create.

Whenever A Great Painter... Does A Work Which Appears To Be False And Lying, That Falsity Is Very True.

I Give My Soul To God, My Body To The Earth, And My Worldly Possessions To My Nearest Of Kin, Charging Them To Remember The Sufferings Of Jesus Christ.

Art Is A Shadow Of Divine Perfection.

A Good Artist Ought Never To Allow Impatience To Overcome His Sense Of The Main End Of Art - Perfection
