More quotes by Robert Henri
Art when really understood is the province of every human being. It is simply a question of doing things, anything, well. It is not an outside, extra thing.
Robert Henri
When the artist is alive in any person, whatever his kind of work may be, he becomes an inventive, searching, daring, self-expressing creature.
Robert Henri
Pretend you are dancing or singing a picture.
Robert Henri

Robert Henri
If you think of a school drawing while you work, your drawing will look like one.
Robert Henri
Art cannot be separated from life. It is the expression of the greatest need of which life is capable, and we value art not because of the skilled product, but because of its revelation of a life's experience.
Robert Henri
Let every student enter the school with this advice. No matter how good the school is, his education is in his own hands. All education must be self education.
Robert Henri
Count on big lines to express your ideas.
Robert Henri
If you work from memory, you are most likely to put in your real feeling.
Robert Henri
Through art mysterious bonds of understanding and of knowledge are established among men.
Robert Henri
