Don't Talk Of What You Are 'going

Don't Talk Of What You Are 'going To Do!' Do It!

Give Up The Idea Of 'color' For Awhile! Consider Masses - Values, Only... One Dark And One Light Place In Every Picture.

You Are To Draw Not Reality, But The Appearance Of Reality!

Painting Is The Only Universal Language. All Nature Is Creation's Picture Book. Painting Alone Can Describe Every Thing Which Can Be Seen, And Suggest Every Emotion Which Can Be Felt. Art Reaches Back Into The Babyhood Of Time, And Is Man's Only Lasting Monument.

There Is Force And Vitality In A First Sketch From Life Which The After-work Rarely Has. You Want A Picture To Seize You As Forcibly As If A Man Had Seized You By The Shoulder! It Should Impress You Like Reality!
