More quotes by Pablo Picasso
An artist must forget painting when he paints. That's the only way he will do original work.
Pablo Picasso
Painting isn't an aesthetic operation it's a form of magic designed as mediator between this strange hostile world and us.
Pablo Picasso
In art, there is neither past nor future. The art that is not in the present will never be.
Pablo Picasso
The people no longer seek consolation in art. But the refined people, the rich, the idlers seek the new, the extraordinary, the extravagant, the scandalous.
Pablo Picasso
All art is subversive.
Pablo Picasso
A painter paints to unload himself of feelings and visions.
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
Painting is just another way of keeping a diary.
Pablo Picasso
We artists are indestructible even in a prison, or in a concentration camp, I would be almighty in my own world of art, even if I had to paint my pictures with my wet tongue on the dusty floor of my cell.
Pablo Picasso
Don't waste your youth growing up.
Pablo Picasso
I paint objects as I think them, not as I see them.
Pablo Picasso
When the individuality of the artist begins to express itself, what the artist gains in the way of liberty he loses in the way of order.
Pablo Picasso
Each time I undertake to paint a picture I have a sensation of leaping into space. I never know whether I shall fall on my feet. It is only later that I begin to estimate more exactly the the effect of my work.
Pablo Picasso
If I paint a wild horse, you might not see the horse... but surely you will see the wildness!
Pablo Picasso
I don't say everything, but I paint everything.
Pablo Picasso
Whether he wants it or not, man is the instrument of nature she imposes on him character and appearance.
Pablo Picasso
When I haven't any blue I use red.
Pablo Picasso
If I like it, I say it's mine. If I don't I say it's a fake.
Pablo Picasso
Titian, Rembrandt and Goya were the great painters. I am only a public clown.
Pablo Picasso
It is a well-known fact that we see the faults in other's works more readily than we do in our own.
Pablo Picasso
