Quote

Drawing and color are not separate at all in so far as you paint, you draw. The more color harmonizes, the more exact the drawing becomes. When the color achieves richness, the form attains its fullness also

Image
Art first of all is optical. That's where the material of our art is: in what our eyes think.
Paul Cezanne
Image
I am not altogether displeased with the shirt-front.
Paul Cezanne
Image
The sun penetrates me soundlessly like a distant friend that stirs up my laziness, fertilizes it. We bring forth life.
Paul Cezanne
Image
Here, on the river's verge, I could be busy for months without changing my place, simply leaning a little more to right or left.
Paul Cezanne
Image
An art which isn't based on feeling isn't an art at all.
Paul Cezanne
Image
I am the primitive of the method I have invented.
Paul Cezanne
Image
You have to hurry up if you want to see something, everything disappears.
Paul Cezanne
Image
The world doesn't understand me and I don't understand the world, that's why I've withdrawn from it.
Paul Cezanne
Image
I am beginning to consider myself stronger than all those around me, and you know that the good opinion I have of myself has only been reached after mature consideration.
Paul Cezanne
Image
Is it the factitious and the conventional that most surely succeed on earth and in the course of life?
Paul Cezanne
Image
Genius is the ability to renew one's emotions in daily experience.
Paul Cezanne
Image
Knowledge of the means to express our emotion is essential- and is acquired only after a very long experience.
Paul Cezanne
Image
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
Image
Perhaps I was born too early. I was more the painter of your generation than of mine.
Paul Cezanne
Image
I owe you the truth in painting, and I will tell it to you.
Paul Cezanne
Image
The Louvre is a good book to consult, but it must only be an intermediary. The real and immense study that must be taken up is the manifold picture of nature.
Paul Cezanne
Image
I'll always be grateful to the public of intelligent amateurs.
Paul Cezanne
Image
Pure drawing is an abstraction.
Paul Cezanne
Image
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
Image
I wish to die painting.
