More quotes by Paul Cezanne
I am the primitive of the method I have invented.
Paul Cezanne
What is one to think of those fools who tell one that the artist is always subordinate to nature? Art is a harmony parallel with nature.
Paul Cezanne
There is no model, there is only color.
Paul Cezanne
Yes, a bunch of carrots, observed directly, painted simply in the personal way one sees it, worth more than the Ecole's everlasting slices of buttered bread, that tobacco-juice painting, slavishly done by the book? The day is coming when a single original carrot will give birth to a revolution.
Paul Cezanne
I cannot attain the intensity that is unfolded before my senses. I have not the magnificent richness of colouring that animates nature.
Paul Cezanne
If I think, I am lost.
Paul Cezanne
I wish to die painting.
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
The world doesn't understand me and I don't understand the world, that's why I've withdrawn from it.
Paul Cezanne
The painter must enclose himself within his work he must respond not with words, but with paintings.
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
Everything in nature takes its form from the sphere, the cone and the cylinder.
Paul Cezanne
We live in a rainbow of chaos.
Paul Cezanne
Pure drawing is an abstraction.
Paul Cezanne
It is impossible for emotion not to come on us in thinking of that time now flowed away.
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
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
Design and color are not distinct and separate. As one paints, one draws. The more the colors harmonize, the more the design takes form. When color is at it's richest, form is at its fullest.
Paul Cezanne
I've come to the conclusion that it's not really possible to help others.
Paul Cezanne
Taste is the best judge. It is rare. Art only addresses itself to an excessively small number of individuals.
Paul Cezanne
