He who wishes to paint Christ's story must live with Christ.

My only objective is to paint a Christ so moving that those who see him will be converted.
He who does Christ's work must stay with Christ always.
The painter should paint not only what he has in front of him, but also what he sees inside himself.
The Christian conceives of his abode on Earth in no more delightful colors than the Jainist sectarian. He sees in it only a time of sad trial; he also thinks that his true country is not of this world.
One must act in painting as in life, directly.
Don't be an art critic. Paint. There lies salvation.

Jesus lived a life that was full of joy and contradictions and fights, you know? If they were to paint a picture of Jesus without contradictions, the gospels would be fake, but the contradictions are a sign of authenticity.
