The Whole Of Nature Is

Recently I Have Been Working In The Country, Where, Carving In The Open Air, I Find Sculpture More Natural Than In A London Studio, But It Needs Bigger Dimensions. A Large Piece Of Stone Or Wood Placed Almost Anywhere At Random In A Field, Orchard, Or Garden, Immediately Looks Right And Inspiring.

Art Is The Expression Of Imagination, Not The Reproduction Of Reality.

I Don't Know Of Any Good Work Of Art That Doesn't Have A Mystery.

Art Is Not To Do With The Practical Side Of Making A Living. It's To Live A Fuller Human Life.

It Is A Mistake For A Sculptor Or A Painter To Speak Or Write Very Often About His Job. It Releases Tension Needed For His Work.
