Are we to paint what's on the face, what's inside the face, or what's behind it?
Pablo Picasso
Image
To know what you’re going to draw, you have to begin drawing... When I find myself facing a blank page, that’s always going through my head. What I capture in spite of myself interests me more than my own ideas.
Pablo Picasso
Image
In art intentions are not sufficient and, as we say in Spanish, love must be proved by deeds and not by reasons. What one does is what counts and not what one had the intention of doing.
Pablo Picasso
Image
A painter paints to unload himself of feelings and visions.
Pablo Picasso
