"Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once he grows up." ( Pablo Picasso )


"The basic impulse, however, cannot be explained as an urge to copy nature; it can be understood only when one realizes that perceiving is not passive recording but understanding, and
that understanding can take place only through the conception of definable shapes.
For this reason art, like science, begins not with attempts to duplicate nature, but with highly abstract general principles. In the arts,
these principles take the form of elementary shapes". ( Rudolf Arnheim 1986 )

"My art goes way back, further back than the horses on the Parthenon---all the way back to the dear old hobby horse of my childhood." ( Paul Gauguin )
“I am not a painter from nature….Now more than ever, everything takes place in my wild imagination. My artistic center is my brain. I am strong because I do what is within me.” ( Paul Gauguin )

“Our ability to perceive quality in nature begins, as in art, with the pretty. It expands through successive stages of the beautiful to values as yet uncaptured by language.” ( Aldo Leopold 1948 )
