In the beginning you must subject yourself to the influence of nature. You must be able to walk firmly on the ground before you start walking on a tightrope.

I would like to recapture that freshness of vision which is characteristic of extreme youth when all the world is new to it.

Drawing is like making an expressive gesture with the advantage of permanence.

An artist must possess Nature. He must identify himself with her rhythm, by efforts that will prepare the mastery which will later enable him to express himself in his own language.
