The Art Spirit

  • We are not here to do what has already been done.
  • You are painting for yourself not the jury.
  • Completion does not depend on the material representation.  The work is done when that special thing has been said.
  • Work with great speed.
  • Finish as quickly as you can.
  • Get the greatest possibilty of expression in the larger masses first.
  • Do not pass from the work on mass to features until all that can be said about the large masses has been said.
  • Hold on to the belief that great drawing comes from doing everything possible with the largest masses and the largest gestures.
  • Capture the moment it was most beautiful to me.
  • Paint the picture on the pallet and then transfer it to the canvas-no waste of pigment.
