Quote

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.

No doubt, it is useful for an artist to know all the forms of art which have preceded or which accompany his. That is a sign of strength if it is a question of looking for a stimulus or recognizing mistakes he must avoid.
Pablo Picasso
Image
There's no such thing as a bad Picasso, but some are less good than others.
Pablo Picasso
Image
I who have been involved with all styles of painting can assure you that the only things that fluctuate are the waves of fashion which carry the snobs and speculators the number of true connoisseurs remains more or less the same.
Pablo Picasso
Image
When I enter the studio, I leave my body at the door the way the Moslems leave their shoes when they enter the mosque, and I only allow my spirit to go in there and paint.
Pablo Picasso
Image
The quality of a painter depends on the amount of past he carries with him.

They'll sell you thousands of greens. Veronese green and emerald green and cadmium green and any sort of green you like but that particular green, never.
