I Do Not Believe In

Evidence Exhausts The Truth.

Nature Is A Mere Pretext For A Decorative Composition, Plus Sentiment. It Suggests Emotion, And I Translate That Emotion Into Art.

Colour Acts Simultaneously With Form, But Has Nothing To Do With Form.

Scientific Perspective Forces The Objects In A Picture To Disappear Away From The Beholder Instead Of Bringing Them Within His Reach As Painting Should.

Writing Is Not Describing, Painting Is Not Depicting. Verisimilitude Is Merely An Illusion.
