Work To Perfect The Mind. There Is

The Whole Renaissance Tradition Is Antipethic To Me. The Hard-and-fast Rules Of Perspective Which It Succeeded In Imposing On Art Were A Ghastly Mistake Which It Has Taken Four Centuries To Redress; Cezanne And After Him Picasso And Myself Can Take A Lot Of Credit For This. Scientific Perspective Forces The Objects In A Picture To Disappear Away From The Beholder Instead Of Bringing Them Within His Reach As Painting Should.

The Starting Point Of A Picture For Any Painter Is A Matter Of Colors And Form...i Believe That The Poetry Of Art - If That Is What One May Call It - Is A Matter Of Animating These Forms And Colors.

When One Reaches This State Of Harmony Between Things And One's Self, One Reaches A State Of Perfect Freedom And Peace-which Makes Everything Possible And Right. Life Becomes Perpetual Revelation.

It Is Not Sufficient That What One Paints Should Be Made Visible. It Must Be Made Tangible.
