More quotes by Paul Cezanne
See nature in terms of the cone, the cylinder, and the sphere.
Paul Cezanne
Painting, like any art, comprises a technique, a workmanlike handling of material, but the accuracy of a tone and the fictitious combination of effects depend entirely on the choice made by the artist.
Paul Cezanne
You have to hurry up if you want to see something, everything disappears.
Paul Cezanne
I wish to die painting.
Paul Cezanne
Right now a moment of time is fleeting by! Capture its reality in paint! To do that we must put all else out of our minds. We must become that moment, make ourselves a sensitive recording plate...Give the image of what we actually see, forgetting everything that has been seen before our time.
Paul Cezanne
All the theories mess you up inside.
Paul Cezanne
There is no light painting or dark painting, but simply relations of tones.
Paul Cezanne
Genius is the ability to renew one's emotions in daily experience.
Paul Cezanne
Talks on art are almost useless. The work which goes to bring progress in one's own subject is sufficient compensation for the incomprehension of imbeciles.
Paul Cezanne
Right now a moment of time is passing by!... We must become that moment.
Paul Cezanne
It is necessary to introduce light vibrations, represented by reds and yellows, and a sufficient amount of blues, to obtain an airy feeling.
Paul Cezanne
With a painter's temperament, all that's needed are the means of expression sufficient to be intelligible to the wide public.
Paul Cezanne
My age and health will never allow me to realize the dream of art I've been pursuing all my life.
Paul Cezanne
I'll always be grateful to the public of intelligent amateurs.
Paul Cezanne
The contour eludes me.
Paul Cezanne
It's not just about looking and copying, it's about feeling too
Paul Cezanne
I've come to the conclusion that it's not really possible to help others.
Paul Cezanne
One can do good things without being very much of a harmonist or a colourist. It is sufficient to have a sense of art - and this sense is doubtless the horror of the bourgeois.
Paul Cezanne
Is it the factitious and the conventional that most surely succeed on earth and in the course of life?
Paul Cezanne
Sometimes I imagine colors as if they were living ideas, being of pure reason with which to communicate. Nature is not on the surface, it is deep down.
Paul Cezanne
