The emotions are sometimes so strong that I work without knowing it. The strokes come like speech.
Vincent Van Gogh
For me, painting is a way to forget life. It is a cry in the night, a strangled laugh.
Georges Rouault
Every good painter paints what he is.
Jackson Pollock
My contribution to the world is my ability to draw. I will draw as much as I can for as many people as I can for as long as I can. Drawing is still basically the same as it has been since prehistoric times. It brings together man and the world. It lives through magic.
Keith Haring
The longer you look at an object, the more abstract it becomes, and, ironically, the more real.
