I'm not just painting for painting's sake. I want to be truthful.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I was not out to paint beautiful pictures; even painting good pictures was not important to me. I wanted only to help the truth burst forth.
I found I have to stay painting.
My sin as a painter is that I just want to paint anything I want to paint - and repaint.
The point of painting is not really deception or imitation.
I believe the reason I love painting so much is that it forces one to be objective.
See, when I paint, it is an experience that, at its best, is transcending reality.
Painting is a very difficult thing. It absorbs the whole man, body and soul, thus have I passed blindly many things which belong to real and political life.
In painting you must give the idea of the true by means of the false.
I love painting and have a need to do it.
I love painting so much that nothing else matters.
