More quotes by Pablo Picasso
The artist is a receptacle for emotions that come from all over the place: from the sky, from the earth, from a scrap of paper, from a passing shape, from a spider's web.
Pablo Picasso
You have to start somewhere. You can always erase reality later on.
Pablo Picasso
Art is a lie that makes us realise truth ... that is given us to understand.
Pablo Picasso
One cannot be a sorcerer all the time. How could one live?
Pablo Picasso
By amusing myself with all these games, all this nonsense, all these picture puzzles, I became famous... I am only a public entertainer who has understood his time.
Pablo Picasso
If I like it, I say it's mine. If I don't I say it's a fake.
Pablo Picasso
When they say that I am too old to make a thing, I try to make it immediately.
Pablo Picasso
A painter paints to unload himself of feelings and visions.
Pablo Picasso
Only put off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having left undone.
Pablo Picasso
Drawing is a kind of hypnotism: one looks in such a way at the model, that he comes and takes a seat on the paper.
Pablo Picasso
I want to create a cat like the real cats I see crossing the streets, not like those you see in houses. They have nothing in common. The cat of the streets has bristling fur. It runs like a fiend, and if it looks at you, you think it is going to jump in your face.
Pablo Picasso
The secret of many of my deformations - which many people do not understand - is that there is an interaction, an intereffect between the lines in a painting: one line attracts the other and at the point of maximum attraction the lines curve in toward the attracting point and form is altered.
Pablo Picasso
An artist must be very careful not to look for models. As soon as one artist takes another as model, he is lost. There is no other point of departure than reality.
Pablo Picasso
I begin with an idea and then it becomes something else.
Pablo Picasso
The best calculation is the absence of calculation. Once you have attained a certain level of recognition, others generally figure that when you do something, it's for an intelligent reason. So it's really foolish to plot out your movements too carefully in advance. You're better off acting capriciously.
Pablo Picasso
If you can imagine it...it is real
Pablo Picasso
Titian, Rembrandt and Goya were the great painters. I am only a public clown.
Pablo Picasso
For a long time I limited myself to one colour - as a form of discipline.
Pablo Picasso
I must keep on trying, just to keep the experiment going until I get tired of it all. Even if the last result is not necessarily the best, I stop when my interest in the problem wanes.
Pablo Picasso
A painting is not thought out in advance. While it is being done, it changes as one’s thoughts change. And when it’s finished, it goes on changing, according to the state of mind of whoever is looking at it
