Find things beautiful as much as you can, most people find too little beautiful.
I dream my painting, and then I paint my dream.
It is not the language of painters but the language of nature which one should listen to, the feeling for the things themselves, for reality is more important than the feeling for pictures.
…one can speak poetry just by arranging colours well, just as one can say comforting things in music.
I experience a period of frightening clarity in those moments when nature is so beautiful. I am no longer sure of myself, and the paintings appear as in a dream.
Art is something which, although produced by human hands, is not created by these hands alone, but something which wells up from a deeper source in our souls.
Reading books is like looking at paintings: without doubting, without hesitating, with self assurance, one must find beautiful that which is beautiful.
….in a picture, I want to say something comforting, as music is comforting.
If you truly love Nature, you will find beauty everywhere
I have a certain obligation and duty… to leave a certain souvenir in the form of drawings or paintings in gratitude. Not done to please some movement or other, but in which an honest human feeling is expressed.
This image reminds me of Van Gogh's description of an engraving of an "old white horse, emaciated and spent and worn out... the poor animal stands in an indescribably lonely and forsaken place:" Van Gogh adds, "it always strikes me and it is remarkable, when we see the image of unutterable and indescribable forsakenness - of loneliness - of poverty and misery, the end of things or their extremity - the thought of God comes to mind.
