It is difficult to know oneself, but it isn't easy to paint oneself either.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
We spent our whole lives in unconsous excercise of the art of expressing our thoughts with the help of words
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
One must work and dare if one really wants to live.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
To save a life is a real and beautiful thing. To make a home for the homeless, yes, it is a thing that must be good whatever the world may say, it cannot be wrong.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
I feel such a creative force in me: I am convinced that there will be a time when, let us say, I will make something good every day , on a regular basis....I am doing my very best to make every effort because I am longing so much to make beautiful things. But beautiful things mean painstaking work, disappointment, and perseverance.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
The great things are not done by impulse, but by a series of small things brought together. And great things are not something accidental, but must certainly be willed.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
If you end up falling in love with someone, it's because of them. If you end up hating someone, it's because of you.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Art is something greater and higher than our own skill or knowledge or learning. That art is something which, though produced by human hands, is not wrought by hands alone, but wells up from a deeper source, from a man's soul.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Painting it was hard graft. There are one and a half large tubes of white in the ground - yet that ground is very dark.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
What a splendid thing watercolour is to express atmosphere and distance, so that the figure is surrounded by air and can breathe in it.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
I do not know myself how I paint it. I sit down with a white board before the spot that strikes me. I look at what is before my eyes, and say to myself, that white board must become something.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
The more I become decomposed, the more sick and fragile I am, the more I become an artist.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Let us keep courage and try to be patient and gentle. And let us not mind being eccentric, and make distinction between good and evil.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
One of the hardest things to do is to paint darkness which nonetheless has light in it.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
One begins by plaguing oneself to no purpose in order to be true to nature, and one concludes by working quietly from one's own palette alone, and then nature is the result.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
I use color in a completely arbitrary way in order to express myself powerfully.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
To the one party, woman is always heresy and diabolical. To me, the opposite.
Vincent Van Gogh
Image
Seeing that I am so busily occupied with myself just now, I want to try to paint my self-portrait in writing.

We take death to reach a star

Ideas for work are coming to me in abundance...I'm going like a painting-locomotive.
