Well, it's been awhile since I updated, so I'm doing it now. I was looking up quotes for no reason and here's some I like:

Life beats down and crushes the soul and art reminds you that you have one. ~Stella Adler

Every child is an artist. The problem is how to remain an artist once we grow up. ~Pablo Picasso

The artist uses the talent he has, wishing he had more talent. The talent uses the artist it has, wishing it had more artist. ~Robert Brault

The artist's world is limitless. It can be found anywhere, far from where he lives or a few feet away. It is always on his doorstep. ~Paul Strand

Painting is easy when you don't know how, but very difficult when you do. ~Edgar Degas

When my daughter was about seven years old, she asked me one day what I did at work. I told her I worked at the college - that my job was to teach people how to draw. She stared at me, incredulous, and said, "You mean they forget?" ~Howard Ikemoto

The artist is the opposite of the politically minded individual, the opposite of the reformer, the opposite of the idealist. The artist does not tinker with the universe, he recreates it out of his own experience and understanding of life. ~Henry Miller

No great artist ever sees things as they really are. If he did, he would cease to be an artist. ~Oscar Wilde

The painter puts brush to canvas, and the poet puts pen to paper. The poet has the easier task, for his pen does not alter his rhyme. ~Robert Brault

For me, painting is a way to forget life. It is a cry in the night, a strangled laugh. ~Georges Rouault

Art is... a question mark in the minds of those who want to know what's happening. ~Aaron Howard

I found I could say things with color and shapes that I couldn't say any other way - things I had no words for. ~Georgia O'Keeffe

As far as I am concerned, a painting speaks for itself. What is the use of giving explanations, when all is said and done? A painter has only one language. ~Pablo Picasso

The world today doesn't make sense, so why should I paint pictures that do? ~Pablo Picasso

When painting, an artist must take care not to trap his soul in the canvas. ~Dena Groquet

Great art is as irrational as great music. It is mad with its own loveliness. ~George Jean Nathan

Art is the colors and textures of your imagination. ~Meghan

Art is a shadow of what a person is thinking... a small glimpse of what they hold inside. Little secrets, regrets, joys... every line has its own meaning. ~Sarah

Art is your emotions flowing in a river of imagination. ~Devin

Art is an adventure that never seems to end. ~Jason

Art is pictures straight from the heart. ~Ben

Art is the triumph over chaos. ~John Cheever

Poets do not go mad; but chess-players do. Mathematicians go mad, and cashiers; but creative artists very seldom. ~Gilbert Keith Chesterton

What garlic is to salad, insanity is to art. ~Augustus Saint

As the sun colors flowers, so does art color life. ~John Lubbock

An artist is a dreamer consenting to dream of the actual world. ~George Santayana

Art is not a thing; it is a way. ~Elbert Hubbard

The true painter strives to paint what can only be seen through his world. ~André Malraux

A subject that is beautiful in itself gives no suggestion to the artist. It lacks imperfection. ~Oscar Wilde

The artist does not see things as they are, but as he is. ~Alfred Tonnelle

Art is a kind of illness. ~Giacomo Puccini

A man and his art are like a fool and his king. ~Corri Alius

While I recognize the necessity for a basis of observed reality... true art lies in a reality that is felt. ~Odilon Redon

The aim of art is to represent not the outward appearance of things, but their inward significance. ~Aristotle

Art is when you hear a knocking from your soul - and you answer. ~Star Richés

There is in every artist's studio a scrap heap of discarded works in which the artist's discipline prevailed against his imagination. ~Robert Brault

Without art, the crudeness of reality would make the world unbearable. ~George Bernard Shaw

Artists can color the sky red because they know it's blue. Those of us who aren't artists must color things the way they really are or people might think we're stupid. ~Jules Feiffer

The artist gazes upon a reality and creates his own impression. The viewer gazes upon the impression and creates his own reality. ~Robert Brault

Fine art is that in which the hand, the head, and the heart of man go together. ~John Ruskin

play a harp, her neck is of gold,
