Quotes about painting:


I perhaps owe having become a painter to flowers.





Eloquence is a painting of thought.





Every portrait that is painted with feeling is a portrait of the artist, not of the sitter.





It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look, which morally we can do. To affect the quality of the day, that is the highest of arts.





I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.





No longer shall I paint interiors with men reading and women knitting. I will paint living people who breathe and feel and suffer and love.
