Painting is with me but another word for feeling.
John Constable
Image
Painting a picture is like trying to fight a battle.
Winston Churchill
Image
Painting is a companion with whom one may walk a great part of life's journey.
Winston Churchill
Image
Painting is like being a lawyer and attacking a corporation.
John Currin
Image
Painting has always been a means of self-expression for me. Therefore, I paint because I have to and need to, not necessarily because I want to. Subconsciously or not, the figures I paint are a reflection of myself and whatever mood I am in at the time, so every painting is in essence a self-portrait.
Lori Earley
Image
Painting embraces and contains within itself all the things which nature produces or which results from the fortuitous actions of men... he is but a poor master who makes only a single figure well.
Leonardo da Vinci
Image
Painting is concerned with the ten things you can see: these are darkness and brightness, substance and color, form and place, remoteness and nearness, movement and rest.
Leonardo da Vinci
Image
Painting is a visceral experience, one loaded with subtle information. Only Cezanne could get away with a system.
Wolf Kahn
Image
Painting taught literature to describe.
Orhan Pamuk
Image
Painting is much more than therapy to me its a way of life.
Tony Curtis
Image
Painting can also be too earnest at times and that's a drag. You don't want to go in that direction either. It should be holistic. It should represent the whole of your personality, I guess, so if somebody is a sincere painter or an ironic painter, then they're just bullshitting the audience and presenting only an idealized version of themselves.
Joe Bradley
Image
Painting and tattooing the body is a return to animalism.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
Image
Painting, for me, when it really 'happens,' is as miraculous as any natural phenomenon - as say, a lettuce leaf. By 'happens,' I mean the painting in which the inner aspect of man and his outer aspects interlock.
Lee Krasner
Image
Painting isn't an aesthetic operation it's a form of magic designed as mediator between this strange hostile world and us.
Pablo Picasso
Image
Painting is easy when you don't know how, but very difficult when you do.
Edgar Degas
Image
Painting does what we cannot do—it brings a three-dimensional world into a two-dimensional plane.
Chuck Jones
Image
Painting is a slow process it takes time to get there, you learn little by little and always want the next painting to be better than the last. For me, success is about this, seeing the slow progress in my work.
Ali Banisadr
Image
Painting, drawing - I'm really into photography, I've done it since high school.
Dianna Agron
Image
Painting is a lie. It's the most magic of all media, the most transcendent. It makes space where there is no space.
Chuck Close
Image
Paintings can make you cry and it's just **colored dirt**.
Chuck Close
Image
Painting is damned difficult - you always think you've got it, but you haven't.
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
Painting requires skill. Photography is created by the camera, and one cannot fully control what the camera sees. So people take many photographs because several must always be discarded.
Igor Babailov
Image
Painting is a faith, and it imposes the duty to disregard public opinion.
Vincent Van Gogh
