Through art mysterious bonds of understanding and of knowledge are established among men.
Robert Henri

Each sensation is precious, protect it, cherish it, keep it. Never give it away. You must develop that balance which allows all of the world to come in to you, and only that which you have expressed in your art to move back out again into the world.
Robert Henri
Image
There is only one reason for art in America, and that is that the people of America learn the means of expressing themselves in their own time, and their own land.
