More quotes by Paul Cezanne
I owe you the truth in painting, and I will tell it to you.
Paul Cezanne
Everything in nature is formed upon the sphere, the cone and the cylinder. One must learn to paint these simple figures and then one can do all that he may wish.
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
I advance all of my canvas at one time.
Paul Cezanne
There is a logic of colors, and it is with this alone, and not with the logic of the brain, that the painter should conform.
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
The landscape becomes human, becomes a thinking, living being within me. I become one with my picture...we merge in an iridescent chaos.
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
I am progressing very slowly, for nature reveals herself to me in very complex forms and the progress needed is incessant.
Paul Cezanne
I am not altogether displeased with the shirt-front.
Paul Cezanne
All the theories mess you up inside.
Paul Cezanne
I ask you to pray for me, for once age has overtaken us, we find consolation only in religion.
Paul Cezanne
The clear French landscape is as pure as a verse of Racine.
Paul Cezanne
The contour eludes me.
Paul Cezanne
It took me 40 years to find out that painting is not sculpture.
Paul Cezanne
If I think, everything is lost.
Paul Cezanne
Pure drawing is an abstraction.
Paul Cezanne
You have to hurry up if you want to see something, everything disappears.
Paul Cezanne
One does not substitute oneself for the past, one merely adds to it a new link.
Paul Cezanne
Fruits ... like having their portrait painted. They seem to sit there and ask your forgiveness for fading. Their thought is given off with their perfumes. They come with all their scents, they speak of the fields they have left, the rain which has nourished them, the daybreaks they have seen.
Paul Cezanne
